Which mechanism accelerates soil horizon mixing in grasslands?

A)Enhanced bioturbation from burrowing animals
B)Increased chemical weathering of bedrock
C)Cryoturbation from seasonal freeze-thaw
D)Leaching of clay particles by water

💡 Explanation

Bioturbation, involving soil displacement via organisms, mixes soil layers, because tunneling increases aeration and organic matter distribution; therefore horizons blend more rapidly rather than remaining distinct layers as through leaching alone.
