Which risk increases when surface tension effects are dominant in Mughal garden water channels?

💡 Explanation

Reduced hydraulic radius efficiency increases because surface tension inhibits uniform flow, especially in shallow channels, creating viscous resistance (the mechanism). Turbulent flow is less established, the structure has less load, and bio-degradation proceeds regardless; therefore A, not B/C/D, is the outcome.
