← HistoryWhich risk increases for Mughal garden fountains when supply-chain disruptions limit repairs?
A)Erosion of 'charbagh' geometry
B)Sediment accumulation blocks nozzles✓
C)Increased 'Pietra Dura' cracking
D)Insufficient laminar aqueduct head
💡 Explanation
Sediment accumulation increases, because without regular maintenance, suspended particles cause silting. The mechanism is sedimentation. Therefore, nozzles become blocked, rather than geometric erosion or problems requiring a laminar aqueduct, both less directly tied to immediate disruptions.
