Answer:
Question ⬇️
Very few types of plants are found in desert regions.
Answer⬇️
Very few plants are found in deserts because desert has a very difficult terrain and climate. A very few plants are able to adapt the desert conditions and survive in the hot and dry climate.
Question 2⬇️
Water cannot penetrate through the bedrock
Answer ⬇️
Bedrock is very compactly packed and are very dense,so the water cannot penetrate the bed rock.
Question 3⬇️
Loamy soils are best for farming
Answer ⬇️
The loamy soil is best suitable for growing crops because it is a mixture of sand, silt, clay and humus. It has the right amount of nutrients and water for plant growth.
Question 4⬇️
Chances of soil erosion are greater in open fields than a forested area.
Answer ⬇️
In dense forests, the tree cover (canopy) prevents rain water from directly falling on the' ground/soil. ... As a result soil erosion is minimised. But in barren, open fields the soil is exposed to the falling rain.
