- Smallest grains of any soil component, sticky texture when it is wet, holds water the best of any soil component.
- (like compaction) the process by which loose sediments are bound together to form sedimentary rocks
- Pushing stress on lithospheric plates (causes faulting).
- The transport of weathered rock and sediments from one location to another.
- Extreme stress and pressure that causes rock to fracture, or break.
- Extreme stress and pressure that causes rock bend and create mountains
- The layers of soil
- Rich, dark organic material in soil
