If the parental material was brought into a region by wind, glaciers, or water, then the resulting soil is referred to as transported soil. (Option a)
- Soil formation takes place through the process of weathering which is the breaking down of rocks.
- These rock particles get displaced from their place of origin through wind, glaciers, water, etc.
- Such a type of soil is called transported soil.
- The soil particles that get carried away and deposited by the winds are called wind soil.
- The soil transported by water through the rivers, streams, valleys, etc are called water transported soils.
- Rivers and lakes transport and deposits alluvial soil and lacustrine soil respectively.
- The soil that gets transported along with the melted glaciers is called glacial soil.
