What are the major properties of soil?
Sand, soil, clay particles, and organic matter that mostly comes from decaying plant materials.
What 2 elements are contained in all organic compounds?
Whether a compound is "organic" or not depends only on one element: carbon. Both methane (CH4) and cyanogen (NCCN) are organic compounds, and as you can see they only have one element in common.
What is the meaning of soil settlement?
It would seem to suggest the level of compaction of the top layers of soil. Rainfall, decomposition of organic matter and the overall composition of the soil (abundance of clay acts as an impermeable) will be major influences in compaction or settlement of the layers.
What element are found in pebbles?
The major rock forming elements are oxygen, silicon, aluminum, iron, calcium, sodium, potassium and magnesium. Many other metallic and non-metallic elements are also found in rocks. Depends on the rock.
What element is found in clothes?
The elements that makes fabrics are: lines ,colour , shapes andtexture.-----------------------------------------------------------------------The above is a surprising answer, but it is not incorrect as a fabric can refer to a structure or grain in something.However, in terms of chemistry, fabric - that is cloth - is normally made up of plant fibers. There fibers in turn are made of the elements Carbon, Hydrogen and Oxygen in the form of cellulose which in turn is made up of polymerized sugar molecules.
What are major components of soil?
The major components of soil are mineral matter, or broken-down rock; organic matter, or humus; air; and water.

Major elements and major mineral elements found in cytoplasm?
Major elements that are found in cytoplasm are carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen and oxygen. The type of minerals present in the cytoplasm depends on cell type. Cells making up bones tend to have more minerals such as calcium in it.
What is Organic Matter Percentage?
Organic matter is the vast array of carbon compounds in soil. Originally created by plants, microbes, and other organisms, these compounds play a variety of roles in nutrient, water, and biological cycles. For simplicity, organic matter can be divided into two major categories: stabilized organic matter which is highly decomposed and stable, and the active fractionwhich is being actively used and transformed by living plants, animals, and microbes. Two other categories of organic compounds are living organisms and fresh organic residue. These may or may not be included in some definitions of soil organic matter.
What are the 4 major elements found in organisms?
Carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen
What are the major properties of soil?
Sand, soil, clay particles, and organic matter that mostly comes from decaying plant materials.
What does proteins carbohydrates lipids and nucleic acids have in common?
They are all the major organic compounds. They also share the elements Carbon, Oxygen, and Hydrogen.
What major elements are found in an amino acid?
Carbon, Hydrogen. Oxygen , Nitrogen And Sulphur.
What are four major causes of organic compounds found in living organisms?
Proteins, carbohydrates, fats and nucleic acids
