Answer:
Soil is the thin layer of material covering the earth's surface and is formed from the weathering of rocks. It is made up mainly of mineral particles, organic materials, air, water and living organisms—all of which interact slowly yet constantly.
Parent material. Few soils weather directly from the underlying rocks.
Climate. Soils vary, depending on the climate.
Topography. Slope and aspect affect the moisture and temperature of soil.
Biological factors. Plants, animals, micro-organisms, and humans affect soil formation
