also known as subsoil, In Indiana usually clay or sand. Not as good for growing crops

This is why we see the same side of the Moon at all times.

Created when rain passes through a freezing layer of air near the ground

Air mass responsible for Warm and Wet weather

Made of bedrock, impossible to grow crops in.

Liquid precipitation, most common type of precipitation

Term given for the different layers of soil that usually differ in color and texture from other layers around it.

Chemical process that uses water to break large molecules into smaller ones during weathering

Form as water condenses in a cloud at Below freezing temperatures.

Shown on a map with red semi-circles and blue triangles on opposite sides

Dark and rich soil, best for growing crops. Also known as Topsoil

Caused by Earth's tilt

Made of dead leaves, dead bugs, and other surface debris that has not decomposed into soil yet.
