Question
Which of the following types of soil is known for
exhibiting a characteristic honey-comb structure, typically formed due to specific environmental conditions such as high rainfall, leaching, and the accumulation of iron and aluminum oxides? This structure is often observed in areas with a tropical climate and heavy seasonal rains, where the soil undergoes extensive weathering.Solution
Explanation: Lateritic soil is known for its honey-comb structure, which forms as a result of intense weathering and leaching in tropical and subtropical regions. This soil is rich in iron and aluminum oxides, and the honey-comb structure is a result of the soil's porous nature after heavy rainfall and the leaching of minerals. Black soil, mountain soil, marshy-peaty soil, and red soil do not typically exhibit this characteristic honey-comb structure.
