Which deposits result when lowered hydraulic conductivity occurs?

💡 Explanation

Enhanced glacial varves are likely because reduced hydraulic conductivity restricts water flow between layers, leading to finer sediment differentiation and more distinct varve deposition; therefore, option A is correct rather than options B, C, or D due decreased sediment sorting efficiency.
