The four components of soil:
 Mollisols  Alfisols  Inceptisols  Entisols Example of an Udipsamment, which is an Entisol – A young poorly developed soil in a sandy glacial outwash.
 Found in middle latitudes and prairie regions  Areas with moderate temps and precipitation  Organic decomposition is responsible for thick dark topsoil.

Soil. Mechanical and chemical weathering of rocks form soil. Soil covers much of the land on Earth. It is made up of minerals, air, water, and organic.
