Question

The Soil conservation method in which mountain slope is cut into step is..

Answer 1

Answer:

Terracing.

Explanation:

Soil formation occurs as a result of the the decay or the remains of plants and animals which are used up.

Weathering can be defined as the physical and chemical breakdown of rock into smaller pieces called sediment. Weathering can be classified into two categories namely;

I. Physical weathering : it is the process of breaking rocks into pieces without affecting its chemical composition e.g temperature, abrasion and frost action.

II. Chemical weathering : it is the process of breaking rocks into pieces by chemical action which leads to changes in its chemical composition e.g carbonation, hydration, plant acid and oxidation.

Soil conservation can be defined as the use of various techniques so as to prevent the loss of the top most later of the soil and protecting it from degradation. Thus, the fertility of the soil is maintained.
