OPEN-RESPONSE QUESTION
11. Explain how soil forms. Be sure to include why soil in one place might have different properties than soil in another place.
ANSWERS
Key Points
• Soil forms from weathered rock and humus.
• Rock is broken into small pieces by physical and chemical
weathering.
• The pieces of rock mix with dead plant and animal
material (humus).
• Soils are different from one place to another because
• the source rock (or parent rock) differs.
• the amount of weathering can differ (for example,
if the earth materials have traveled down a river
they may be smaller and more rounded).
• the humus depends on what plants and animals live
and die in the area.
Soils, Rocks, and Landforms Module 51
Code If the student . . .
4 explains that soils form from diff erent types and amounts
of weathered rock and humus (dead plants and animals); includes the idea that soils diff er from place to place because water, wind, and glaciers (erosion forces) often carry earth material to diff erent places.
3 provides information about how rock weathers or humus
forms; includes something about why earth materials in soils diff er from place to place (might include minor errors).
2 writes something about the earth material in soils or how humus forms; does not describe why soils diff er from place to place.
1 writes any other answer.
