← HistoryWhich outcome results, due to increased evapotranspiration above the limit of water delivery, in a failing Mughal garden water system?
A)Diminished downstream fountain pressure✓
B)System-wide algae overgrowth occurs
C)Accelerated sedimentation of the aqueducts
D)Destabilization of surrounding soil slopes
💡 Explanation
The evapotranspiration reduces water quantity available to distribute across the channels, inducing a loss of hydraulic head due to increased frictional loss, therefore, lowering the pressure necessary for proper fountain function, rather than excess biomass or aqueduct blockages.
