An artist is reviewing plans for a granite statue. The statue will be displayed outdoors. How could the plans be revised to reduce the long-term effects of chemical weathering?

A) increasing the size of the statue
B) hollowing out the center of the statue
C) reducing the surface area of the statue

Respuesta :

C. Reducing the surface area of the state

Answer:

reducing the surface area of the statue
