Desert soils are dry soil with some hot and sandy. Desert soils have low soil moisture that prevents minerals from leaching out of the soils and are only able to support little vegetation due to very high temperatures and lack of water (very low rainfall) in the desert. Desert soils are low in organic matter because there is limited plant remains and any organic matter in the soil are destroyed by the excessive heat at a very high rate.

A weather map is shown below:
ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

The cold front is to the west of Dallas.

Explanation:

The curved line with triangles on the map represents a cold front, and the direction of the front is indicated by the way the triangles are pointing.

The cold front is most likely to affect Dallas in the coming hours and will probably bring rain, wind, and possibly thunderstorms to the Dallas area. After the passage of the cold front, the pressure will rise and the temperature will drop. The wind will now be out of the northwest.

The predictions are no always exact because some winter cold fronts can bring snow and not all cold fronts generate thunderstorms.
