Question

Three factors influencing soil formation

Answer 1

• parent rock material.

• climate , time.

• relief features.

Answer 2

Answer:

Time:

Soils can take many years to form. Younger soils have some characteristics from their parent material, but as they age, the addition of organic matter, exposure to moisture and other environmental factors may change its features.

Climate:

This is probably the most important factor that can shape the formation of soils. Two important climatic components, temperature and precipitation are key.

Relief:

This refers to the landscape position and the slopes it has. Steep, long slopes mean water will run down faster and potentially erode the surfaces of slopes.

Hope it helps!!
