2.1. Three-phase System

Try these first

1. 1.

   What type of soil is formed from local weathered rocks?

   Hint

   Think about where the soil is formed.

2. 2.

   Name one type of transported soil.

   Hint

   Remember the forces that move soils.

3. 3.

   What are residual soils?

   • A. Formed at the same location
   • B. Moved by wind
   • C. Found in oceans

   Hint

   Think about the soil's origin.

4. 4.

   True or False: Transported soils are formed in place.

   • True
   • False

   Hint

   Recall the difference in formation.

5. 5.

   Analyze how soil type affects crop yield in agricultural practices based on soil composition.

   Hint

   Think about nutrient retention and moisture holding capacity.

6. 6.

   Design an experiment to compare the moisture retention of residual and transported soils.

   Hint

   Consider measuring weight changes of the soils.
