History

Which adaptation primarily increased crop consistency in pre-Columbian chinampa raised-bed agriculture?

A)Enhanced water table regulation
B)Selective breeding of maize
C)Rotation using native legumes
D)Widespread terraced slope cultivation

💡 Explanation

Chinampas regulate temperature gradients because the raised beds are surrounded by water, providing thermal mass via evaporative cooling and heat retention; therefore, it avoids temperature shock, rather than depending on solely genetic adaption or external topography changes.
