The biome that has infertile soil, principally oxisols, to which the vegetation <span>has roots systems that capture nutrients from litter decay, is the tropical rainforest.
Soil types are highly variable in the tropics and are the result of a combination of several elements or variables which includes climate, vegetation, topographic position, parent material and also the soil age. Most of the tropical soils are described by leaching and poor nutrients. It also has two classifications: namely the ultisols and oxisols. Ultisols are known as well-weathered, acidic red clays soils. They are deficient primarily in major nutrients such as potassium and calcium. Oxisols are also an acidic type of tropical soil. However, they are well drained compared to the ultisols.

The answer would be C.
Nonpolar molecules cannot form hydrogen bonds that polar molecules can. Interactions between nonpolar molecules are very weak thus D is wrong. And water can climb up inside plants and has adhesion and cohesion because of it’s strong hydrogen bonds.
I am making a educated guess and saying producers. Plants mostly.
The independent variable should be the plants you used.
