← HistoryWhich risk increases with reduced desilting of mughal garden canals?
A)Reduced hydrostatic pressure for fountains
B)Increased scour near sandstone foundations✓
C)Decreased dissolved oxygen benefiting fish
D)Eutrophication decreases algal biodiversity downstream
💡 Explanation
Increased scouring increases because decreased desilting reduces capacity, increasing flow velocity; therefore, erosion risk increases, rather than flow reduction. Flow decrease affects fountain height, but scouring directly threatens foundations, a more relevant physical impact.
