← HistoryWhich outcome regarding atmospheric conditions arises because of sustained adiabatic cooling within a tall, porous ziggurat structure?
A)Decreased airflow through interior spaces
B)Increased salt crystal accumulation risk✓
C)Accelerated structural material weathering
D)Internal heat flux remains constant
💡 Explanation
Increased salt crystal accumulation results because *adiabatic cooling* lowers interior temperature, increasing relative humidity which concentrates salts as water evaporates. Therefore, the outer layers crystallize as moisture evaporates, rather than remaining dissolved; causing material stress.
