Answer:
1. Some important passes located in the Himalayas are Karakoram Pass, Nathu la, Pir Panjal pass, Shipki la Pass and Banihal Pass.
2. the layer of unconsolidated solid material covering the bedrock of a planet.
3. Rocks are not all the same!
The three main types, or classes, of rock are sedimentary, metamorphic, and igneous and the differences among them have to do with how they are formed. Sedimentary rocks are formed from particles of sand, shells, pebbles, and other fragments of material.
4. Parent materials
Soil minerals form the basis of soil. They are produced from rocks (parent material) through the processes of weathering and natural erosion. Water, wind, temperature change, gravity, chemical interaction, living organisms and pressure differences all help break down parent material.
1. The word deposition is often used in a legal context, but a deposition can also be more like a deposit, as in the deposition of sediment on the bottom of a lake. And in the sense of depose, a deposition can refer to getting rid of a person of authority.
4. the solid mineral material forming part of the surface of the earth and other similar planets, exposed on the surface or underlying the soil.
2. a sausage.
5. the upper layer of earth in which plants grow, a black or dark brown material typically consisting of a mixture of organic remains, clay, and rock particles.
3. a solid, naturally occurring inorganic substance.
