← HistoryWhich data failure occurs when humidity impacts an Inca quipu such that individual knots become indistinguishable?
A)Corrupted data interpretation occurs✓
B)Mechanical signal propagation degrades
C)Electrical resistance abruptly increases
D)Thermal expansion induces cracking
💡 Explanation
Corrupted data interpretation arises because the quipu relied on a knot's location and type for encoding numerical data; therefore, loss of knot integrity damages the data record rather than mechanical or thermal issues.
