← HistoryWhich outcome results from the intentional flooding of chinampa fields?
A)Nutrient replenishment within the soil✓
B)Pest reduction from predator increase
C)Water runoff reduces soil salinity
D)Decreased soil erosion on the surface
💡 Explanation
Nutrient replenishment occurs due to the mechanism of alluvial deposition, because periodic flooding brings fresh sediment to the field, thus enriching the soil; therefore, soil fertility is sustained, rather than experiencing pest reduction, erosion control, or runoff mitigation.
