← GeographyWhich consequence results when tephra accumulation exceeds capacity?
A)Structural roof collapse on habitations✓
B)Increased albedo diminishing solar radiation
C)Enhanced geothermal power plant conduction
D)Accelerated chemical weathering of monuments
💡 Explanation
Habitat roof collapse occurs when accumulated tephra surpasses the load-bearing capacity because gravitational force induces structural failure; therefore, collapse is the result, rather than increased albedo through reflection with lowered insolation or thermal process boosting conduction.
