In both the USDA soil taxonomy, and the FAO soil classification, histosol refers to a soil comprising mainly of organic substances, they are illustrated as exhibiting 16 inches or more of organic soil substance in the upper 31 inches. The organic soil substance exhibits an organic carbon constituent of 12 to 18%, or more, based on the clay constituent of the soil.  

On the other hand, ardisols are found in the xeric shrublands and deserts that form about 1/3rd of the land surface of the Earth. The ardisols possesses a very low amount of organic matter, signifying the scarcity of vegetative production on these dry soils. The deficiency of water is the prime illustrating feature of ardisols.

What can you conclude about the advantage of the cell membrane being made up of phospholipids?
sergiy2304 [10]
The phospholipid bilayer is a universal component of all cell membranes. Each phospholipid molecule has a hydrophobic(water repelling) and a hydrophilic( attracted to water) end. This allows the phospholipids to arrange themselves in a way that makes a cell membrane not able to dissolve in water. The bilayer is also semi-permeable which allows only certain molecules to enter the cell.
