Answer:

B) Distinctly alkaline diagnostic horizons, thin profiles, lack of organic material, and dominance of sandy materials are features most closely associated with aridisols.

Explanation:

The aridisols are types of soils that are found predominantly in arid areas. They are soils that are not considered as fertile, and are near the bottom by quality of soils. These soils are lacking organic material, and also are very exposed to erosion, with the primary reason being the climate, as it doesn't allow for lot of vegetation to grow. The horizons of the aridisols are distinctly alkaline diagnostic ones, with the profiles being very thin and labile. The top layer of the soil is dominated by sandy material, which is a result of the extensive weathering and erosion in their surroundings, so the wind is mostly transporting small sandy grains and covers most of the area with them.

igneous rock

Explanation:

There are three main kinds of rocks, sedimentary, metamorphic and igneous.

The igneous rocks are the ones that formed from a hot source like magma inside the soil, as it gets to the surface of the Earth it goes cooling. If it cools almost in the surface of the Earth then is consider a plutonic rock.

Plutonic Rocks have a big quantity of minerals, since they cool under a big pressure, these minerals get together forming a solid rock.

By passing the time the granites of minerals can be easily seen at naked eye, like the characteristics of these sample.
