Which consequence accelerates alabaster cave formation via sulfuric acid?

💡 Explanation

Increased microbial sulfate oxidation produces sulfuric acid which enhances dissolution of limestone because the acid reacts with calcium carbonate. This accelerates cave formation; therefore high microbial activity speeds up the process, rather than slowed oxidation under changed conditions.
