Q1
On a farm, fertile topsoil builds up very slowly as rocks break down and dead plants decay. A teacher explains that this process can take many years to make a thin layer of new topsoil. During a few seasons of heavy rain, the farm loses visible soil in muddy runoff from bare fields. What happens if the soil continues to be lost faster than it forms?
