Question

E. Answer in one word.
1. Overgrazing by animals leads to this
2. Vertical section of soil from ground surface to parent rock
3. This soil has least water-holding capacity
4. The process of soil formation
5. Layer of soil rich in minerals​

Answer 1

Answer:

1.Overgrazing reduces the usefulness, biodiversity, and productivity of the land and is one cause of desertification and erosion. It's also considered to be a cause of the spread of invasive species of non-native plants and weeds.

2.A vertical section of soil from ground surface to parent rock that shows different layers of soil is called a horizons

3.Sand soil has the least water retaining capacity. The soil's ability to hold water depends on the size of its particles. Sandy soils have coarse particles so they have low water and nutrient holding capacities.

4.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.

5.The layer A Horizon and which is also known as 'top soil' is rich in minerals . It contains decomposed organic matter called humus
