Which consequence results when acid rain accelerates dissolution in karst regions?

A)Increased frequency of sinkhole formation
B)Decreased regional seismic activity
C)Enhanced groundwater recharge rates
D)Reduced topsoil nutrient availability

💡 Explanation

Increased acidity dissolves the limestone bedrock because the carbonation dissolution process weakens the subsurface, forming cavities. Therefore, sinkholes become more frequent as the ground collapses, rather than enhanced recharge or changes in seismic activity.
