← GeographyWhich geomorphological outcome occurs when carbonic acid exceeds limestone dissolution limits?
A)Extensive karst topography formation✓
B)Accelerated silicate rock weathering
C)Increased igneous rock stability
D)Reduced organic material decomposition
💡 Explanation
Extensive karst topography, including sinkholes and caves, emerges because limestone dissolution significantly increases due to exceeding the limits imposed by carbonic acid concentration; therefore, karst landscapes form rather than weathering silicate rocks at an increased rate.
