Solution

The correct option is D Parent rock
Soil formation is mainly related to parent rock, regional climate and natural vegetation. There is a balance maintained between the processes of soil formation and erosion. But sometimes, this balance is disturbed due to human activities like deforestation, overgrazing, construction, and mining.
