The correct answer is - A. replacing natural vegetation with cultivated crops.
The natural vegetation is perfectly adapted to a certain environment, and it is also able to keep the soil tight with its roots, so the erosion is minimal.
When the natural vegetation is replaced by cultivated crops, than a problem occurs in the erosion of the soil. That is because the cultivated crops, in general, do not have root systems that are as strong and widespread as the natural vegetation, thus the soil becomes loosened up, so it is much easier to be eroded.
Some estimates put the first human settlements in the Amazon at 32,000 to 39,000 years ago. Since that time, Amazon people have developed lifestyles that are well integrated with the benefits and constraints of rainforests.
An estimated 7-10 million Amerindians (the term for American Indigenous peoples) lived in American rainforests, half of them in Brazil, at the time of European arrival. When Pizarro arrived in Peru, more land was under cultivation and more food was being produced in the Andean region than today.
