← GeographyWhich outcome accelerates sediment deposition near a lake?
A)Increased vegetation capturing alluvial sediment✓
B)Higher lakebed salinity reduces flocculation
C)Decreased regional groundwater discharge rate
D)Lower lake water temperature increases viscosity
💡 Explanation
Increased vegetation facilitates alluvial sedimentation because plants reduce water flow velocity, promoting the settling of suspended particles and causing sediment deposition; therefore, vegetation promotes sediment capture rather than salinity affecting flocculation.
