Which consequence results when increased organic acid production occurs within cave stream sediments?

A)Enhanced speleothem deposition rate
B)Accelerated bedrock dissolution rate
C)Reduced cave air ventilation
D)Diminished microbial sulfate reduction

💡 Explanation

Accelerated bedrock dissolution follows from increased organic acid production via chelation; because these acids enhance carbonate mineral solubility. This weathering occurs, therefore karst landscape sculpting increases, rather than diminishing aeration within accessible cave systems.
