← HistoryWhich limit arises from prolonged terrace farming leading soil degradation?
A)Reduced structural bearing capacity✓
B)Decreased photosynthetic output
C)Disrupted animal hibernation cycles
D)Lowered overall sediment deposition
💡 Explanation
Soil degradation on terraces reduces structural bearing capacity, because the reduced soil density cannot support the weight. This leads to collapse, therefore stability is compromised, rather than affecting photosynthesis or other ecological impacts.
