Answer to Question 1

ANS:
Soil aggregates, or crumbs, are soil units that contain mostly clay, silt, and sand particles held together by a gel-type substance formed from organic matter.



Answer to Question 2

ANS:
Alluvial soils are transported by streams; lacustrine soils are left by lakes; loess soils are left by wind; colluvial soils are left by gravity, and glacial soils are left by ice.
