Which soil horizon change results when earthworm introduction increases?

A)Increased mineral horizon thickness and homogeneity
B)Decreased organic matter concentration at surface
C)Reduced horizon boundary sharpness and definition
D)Accelerated podzolization of upper layers

💡 Explanation

Increased earthworm activity causes increased mineral horizon thickness and homogeneity because bioturbation mixes soil components, therefore minerals spread rather than remain stratified, which is more common in undisturbed soils.
