Is bulk density influence soil texture?
Definitely, soil texture influences soil bulk density
What is the difference between soil texture and soil structure in soil science terms?
soil texture refers to particle sizes. whereas soil structure refers to particle arrangements
What does the texture or particle size of the soil determine?
soil ferility
What does the texture or particle size of soil determine what?
soil ferility
Do all soil looks and feel the same?
soil texture is some what the same there are soils with coarse or rough texture and there those with fine smooth texture . soil texture is due to the size of the particles that make it up. there are 3 main types of soil particle :-sand, with coarser or larger particles-silt, with medium sized particles-clay, with the finest or smallest particles
Is bulk density influence soil texture?
Definitely, soil texture influences soil bulk density

What does the texture or particle size of the soil determine?

What does the texture or particle size of soil determine what?
soil ferility
What is used to determined soil type based on the ratio or particle size?
A soil texture triangle. (Think im wrong, then re-answer this qeustion).

How does parent material affect soil texture?
Parent material influences soil formation through the process of weathering and then through the influence of the weathered material on soil processes. It provides the skeleton for the soil's texture through its main structure.
How do you find porosity of a soil when all you are given is the dry density and the particle density of the soil.. and can you find bulk density with just this info?
Concerning the second Question: "Can you find bulk density with just this info?"Purely on mathematical insight and analysis:Yes, you should be able to find the bulk density of dry soil, given the 'dry overall' and the 'particle' densities.When wet, there is not enough 'given'Also some should be known about the (or your) definition of porosity
Soil texture?
The texture of soil depends on its particle size: clay-fine grains, very little space for water. sand- coarse grains, loose, water drains quicklysilt-medium grains, retains water.
What is soil particle density?
The mass per unit volume of soil particles, usually expressed in grams per cubic centimetre.
What are two things that may affect soil?
what about soil are you asking about? In terms of texture earthworms and organic matter can affect it. In terms of acidity soil particle size and acid rain can affect it.
Maximum bulk density can be occur?
bulk density depend on that material from which soil formed. so maximum bulk density depend on particle density of that mineral. Therefore,we can only tapped the soil upto perticle density. so maximum bulk density may be occur at equal to paricle density.
