Question 1

Organisms contribute to soils formation by ________.
◦ stirring the soil to allow air infiltration
◦ contributing organic matter to the soil
◦ degrading organic matter to form humus
◦ all of the above

Question 2

In the Rocky Mountain region of the United States, north-facing slopes (downhill direction is toward the north) are typically moister and more heavily forested than south-facing slopes. Why?
◦ South-facing slopes receive less moisture, yet rock weathering is faster.
◦ South-facing slopes receive more moisture and sunlight; rock weathering is slower.
◦ North-facing slopes receive about the same amount of precipitation as south-facing slopes; less moisture evaporates from north-facing slopes.
◦ North-facing slopes receive more sunlight in the summer; snow melts faster and more soil moisture is available for the trees.
