History

Which agricultural consequence resulted from extensive chinampa construction around Tenochtitlan's lake system?

A)Increased susceptibility to crop blight
B)Localized climate cooling effect
C)Enhanced soil salinity accumulation
D)Increased methane production from decomposition

💡 Explanation

When organic matter decomposes within the constructed chinampa wetlands, anaerobic decomposition occurs because of the waterlogged conditions, leading to increased methane production. Therefore, increased methane results, rather than crop blight/salinity/cooling which require different environmental factors.
