Question

write short notes on the following topics -
a) soil formation
b) biogeochemical cycles​

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:

A biochemical cycle is the transport and transformation of chemicals in ecosystems. These are strongly influenced by the unique hydrologic conditions in wetlands. These processes result in changes in the chemical forms of materials and also the movement of materials within wetlands.
