Which risk elevates when mechanical weathering surpasses chemical?

A)Accelerated sediment transport rates
B)Reduced soil formation timeframe
C)Increased overall mineral dissolution
D)Slower rate of cation exchange

💡 Explanation

Increased fragment size from mechanical weathering facilitates accelerated sediment transport, because smaller particles, produced during chemical weathering, bind better; therefore, higher rates of transport result, rather than changes in nutrient availability, dissolution or exchange directly.
