Solution

The correct option is C inch

Forming 1 inch of soil can take hundreds to thousands of years. In colder and drier areas, it'll take longer than in warmer and wetter areas. This is because in cold and/or dry areas, soil forming procedures such as translocation and transformation are slower.
