Answer:. HEY MATE HERE IS YOUR ANSWER
Explanation:
A fourth factor of soil formation is the configuration of the landscape; i.e., the topography of the area in which the soil develops.
Topography affects soil formation in various ways. Where the land is flat, the processes of energy exchange and of water inflow and release tend to be vertical, so the soil develops to a characteristic depth. In contrast, where the land slopes steeply, a considerable portion of the rainfall flows downslope over the surface (a phenomenon called runoff), often scouring the surface and causing erosion. Consequently, the soils on sloping ground tend to be shallower and drier that those situated on plateaus or in valleys.
