Which outcome accelerated when Chinampa agricultural systems experienced prolonged drought conditions impacting maize production near Tenochtitlan?

💡 Explanation

When drought affected Chinampas, capillary action increased bringing dissolved salts to surface because evaporation exceeded rainfall, leading to heightened soil salinity hindering maize growth. Therefore, increased soil salinization resulted, not decreased nutrients, waterlogging, or enhanced pest resistance, which depend on excess water.
