Q: ............ is formed due to weathering of the rocks by physical agencies and in which transportation is by gravitational forces.
  • A. Glacial soil
  • B. Loam soil
  • C. Colluvial soil
  • D. Sandy soil
Correct Answer: Option C - Gravity-deposited soils– • Soil can be transported through distances under the action of gravity. • Colluvial soils, such as talus, have been deposited by the gravity. • Talus consists of irregular, coarse particles.
