Question

Physical factors like water and wind, chemical processes like hydration, biological factors like ___ influence soil formation.

Answer 1

Soil formation is influenced by physical, chemical and biological processes. Physical factors like water and wind aid the transfer of soil from one region to another. Water is also one of the important weathering agent of soil. Chemical processes loosen the forces in between the molecules present in rocks, untill they finally become soil. Biological factors like living organisms living in the soil convert the dead and decaying elements in the soil to manure which becomes an element of the soil.
