Answer:

Soil color is influenced by the moisture content, mineral composition, and organic content. For example, soils high in calcium tend to be white, those high in iron are reddish, and those high in humus are dark brown to black. Soil needs only about 5% organic material to appear black when wet.

Explanation:

Soils come in different shades. Most shades of soil are black, brown, red, gray, and white. Soil color and other properties including texture, structure, and consistence are used to distinguish and identify soil horizons (layers) and to group soils according to the soil classification system called Soil Taxonomy.
