in our activity, what Did the bubbles in the soil represent?
air in the soil
what climate factors influence soil formations
rainfall
What component did we not measure during the 4.1.1 activity?
air
in our activity, what caused the difference in pore space between the 2 samples.
the roots
How does rainfall help form soil
it helps move materials from place to place
How are mineral particles in each layer different?
up high there are smaller bits of rock, the lower it is the bigger the rocks get.
Why would one sample produce less Bubbles then other samples
because of less compaction
What is soil erosion
when soil gets removed by environmental factors
What soil component mostlay makes up soil?
mineral
How does organic matter affect the amount of pore space in soil
increases by help particle stick together
What is soil formation

What are some recommendations you’d make for making better porosity in soil
add organic matter.
