Question

name the factor on which soil formation depends​

Answer 1

Answer:

Soils are formed through the interaction of five major factors: time, climate, parent material, topography and relief, and organisms. The relative influence of each factor varies from place to place, but the combination of all five factors normally determines the kind of soil developing in any given place.

Explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

The factors on which soil formation depends are:

1. Parent Material: It is deposited by streams or derived from in-situ weathering.

2. Climate: It is one of the important factors in the formation of soil because it affects the rate of weathering of the parent rock.

3. Role of precipitation: The variability in the precipitation modified the composition of the soil.

4. Role of temperature: It is also play important role because fluctuations in temperature causes shrinking and swelling, frost action and general weathering in soils.

5. Biota (Flora, Fauna and Microorganisms): Biota, in conjunction with climate, modifies parent material to produce soil.

6. Topography (Relief, Altitude and Slope).

7. Time: The formation of the soil is not one day process but requires many years to form.
