This is most important series of geography class 10 ICSE. We will provide all detail solution step by step.
MOST IMPORTANT QUESTIONS OF GEOGRAPHY ICSE CLASS 10 , PART 05
1.
TRANSPORT SOIL VS
IN SITU
ü
|
ü Transport soil
|
ü In situ
|
|
ü
This soil is formed when the
agents of erosion deposit sediments at
the place
|
ü the soil is formed when the parent
rocks is broken into small fragments
|
|
ü
far away from its parent rocks
|
ü near at its parent rocks
|
|
ü
extremely fertile
|
ü less fertile
|
2.

3.
NAME THE PROCESS THAT LATERITE SOIL FORMED= weathering
4.
DISADVANTAGE OF LATERITE SOIL= it is infertile
5.
RED SOILS ARE FOUND IN = Tamil nadu and Karnataka
6.
ADVANTAGE OF RED SOIL= 1.rich in iron oxide 2. It is
fertile soil.
7.
TWO IMPOTANT CROP GROWN IN INDIA= wheat and rice
8.
MENTION TWO IMPORTANT CHARACTERISTUCS OF LATERITE SOIL =
|
High iron oxide
|
|
Deficit of nitrogen and lime
|
|
Tamil nadu, Andra Pradesh
|
9.
NAME AN AREA OF BLACK SOIL IN INDIA= Maharashtra and
Gujarat
10.
MENTION THE CROP THAT GROWN IN THIS SOIL = cotton jower
wheat sugarcane
11.
HOW IS ALLUVIAL SOIL FORMED?
ü alluvial soil is
formed due to deposit the materials brought by rivers
12.
WHY IS THIS SOIL AGRICULTURALLY IMPORTANT?
ü because it is
more fertile and rich in humus, potash and lime
13.
NAME TWO IMPORTANT AGENTS OF SOIL EROSION? wind and
running water
14.
EXPAIL THE FORMATION OF LATERITE SOIL?
ü laterite soil is
formed by leaching in the regions of lateritic rocks under high temperature and
heavy rainfall with alternating dry and wet periods
15.
WHY LATERITE SOIL IS NOT SUITABLE FOR CULTIVATION?
ü Leaching of lime
and silica leaves behind a poor soil which is unsuitable for cultivation.

MENTION THE TWO CHARACTERISTICS OF BLACK SOIL?
Black soil is also known as regur soil which is
originated by volcanisms. It has been formed in situ that found in the area
where it has been formed. It is found in mainly in decan trap region such as greater
parts of Gujarat, Maharashtra, parts of Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, south
Uttar Pradesh etc.
The characteristics of black soil are as follows:
1. Deep fined-grained and varying in color from black to
chestnut brown.
2. rich in iron, potash, lime, calcium, alumina,
magnesium and carbonates.
3. Moisture retentive and very sticky when it wets
4. when dry, hardens, and forms deep cracks.
5. crops grown such as wheat, jower, fruits and
vegetables
