← HistoryWhich issue becomes significantly elevated when Inca agricultural terraces face seismic events?
A)Increased soil liquefaction potential✓
B)Accelerated nutrient depletion rate
C)Enhanced evapotranspiration from soil
D)Decreased water retention abilities
💡 Explanation
Terraces amplify seismic waves through soil layers, because geometric amplification concentrates energy, leading to soil liquefaction; therefore increased instability results directly, rather than evapotranspiration changes or nutrient loss effects.
