Which weathering outcome results from consistent unidirectional wind abrasion?

A)Formation of ventifacts on exposed rocks
B)Increased chemical weathering of feldspars
C)Deposition of loess in sheltered areas
D)Development of arid pavement (regolith)

💡 Explanation

Ventifacts form because rocks undergo significant abrasion via aeolian erosion resulting from unidirectional wind patterns; therefore, ventifact creation is the primary result, rather than chemical weathering or sediment deposition, which are different types of geomorphic processes.
