← GeographyWhich pattern emerges when repeated freezing occurs due to substantial bioturbation?
A)Cryoturbation produces patterned ground features✓
B)Nutrient depletion causes slow vegetation growth
C)Increased erosion decreases sediment transport
D)Uniform horizon reduces soil layering
💡 Explanation
Cryoturbation generates patterned ground because repeated freeze-thaw cycles redistribute sorted sediments vertically via bioturbation thereby causing sorted circles. Instead freeze-thaw disturbs the material, rather than depleting nutrients, increasing erosion, or uniform composition.
