History

Which outcome weakened chinampa agriculture when Lake Texcoco's salinity increased?

A)Reduced overall maize crop yield
B)Increased hydraulic jump irrigation rate
C)Improved nitrogen fixation efficiency
D)Expanded aqueduct sedimentation blockage

💡 Explanation

Increased salinity limited maize nutrient absorption because osmotic pressure reduced the plants' transpiration, therefore suppressing growth, rather than improving nitrogen issues or hydraulics in chinampas.
