Which benefit derived primarily from the practice of chinampa construction in Mesoamerica?

💡 Explanation

Chinampa construction created raised fields by layering mud and vegetation in shallow lakebeds, leading to expansion occurring because land was reclaimed and highly fertile soil was developed. Therefore expanding the amount of available arable land resulted, rather than pest management, erosion control, temperature regulation, which were less effectively achieved by chinampas.
