Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

The underground water of Karst topography carves our impressive channels and caves that are susceptible to collapse from the surface. When enough limestone is eroded from underground, a sinkhole (also called a doline) may develop. Sinkholes are depresstions that form when a portion the lithosphere below is eroded away.
