Detailed explanation-1: -Detailed Solution. The correct answer is soil composition. Soil composition is not a factor in soil formation. The soil is a mixture that contains minerals, organic matter, and living organisms.
Detailed explanation-2: -Scientists attribute soil formation to the following factors: Parent material, climate, biota (organisms), topography and time.
Detailed explanation-3: -Soil texture is not a factor which is responsible for the soil formation. Parent material (minerals and nutrients), Time, Climate, Relief and Organisms are the factors which are responsible for the soil formation.
Detailed explanation-4: -The five factors are: 1) parent material, 2) relief or topography, 3) organisms (including humans), 4) climate, and 5) time. Therefore, Human habitation is not a direct factor for soil making.
Detailed explanation-5: -The most determining factor for soil formation is. Climate, , flora and fauna, altitude, and are the five major factors that contribute to soil formation. Sun, water, wind and living organisms are main factors that influence the formation of soil from the rocks. More items
