← HistoryWhich outcome results if the original gravity-fed system for a Mughal garden fountain lacks maintenance?
A)Algae growth clogs narrow pipes✓
B)Sediment induces hydraulic fracturing
C)Freezing causes aqueduct destabilization
D)Salt deposition corrodes joints
💡 Explanation
Algae growth obstructs water flow, because the lack of filtration/cleaning in the gravity-fed system leads to increased organic matter encouraging biological fouling via biofilm build-up. Therefore, the algae clogs pipes, rather than causing structural damage; only biological matter concentrates.
