permafrost
the tundra.
the soil is permafrost, and the soil is low in mineral
Arctic tundra soil is predominantly composed of permafrost, which is a permanently frozen layer of soil beneath the surface. This soil is nutrient-poor and has a high organic content due to the slow decomposition of plant material in the cold environment.
The color of the soil in the tundra is typically dark brown or gray due to the presence of organic matter and minerals. This dark color helps the soil to absorb more sunlight and retain heat in the cold tundra environment.
Inuits live in the tundra. They have special bodies that can digest raw meat so that they can live there.
The shrub is adapted to the tundra because it does not need soil.
