Soils are formed by a complex interaction between weathering and biological processes over millions of years. The chemical composition of soils is influenced in a large part by the parent rock from which they formed. For example a soil formed from a sandstone rock will comprise largely of quartzitic grains, and have a sand grain size, with little clay. There are large differences in chemical composition of the original rocks like, for example, between a granite, basalt or shale.
Besides the parent rock, other factors like the amount of rainfall, the type of organisms temperature and amount of organic matter all influence the chemical composition of the final soil.

North India is mostly made up of alluvial soils, but there are also mountain and submountain soils, teral soils, grey and brown soils, and desert soils.
In Alabama, you can find a variety of soils such as sandy soils, clay soils, loamy soils, and peaty soils. The dominant soil types in the state include Ultisols, Alfisols, and Inceptisols. These soils vary in their characteristics and suitability for different types of crops or land uses.
Wet-climate soils are soils that are influenced by high levels of precipitation and moisture. They tend to be waterlogged and have lower oxygen content, leading to unique properties such as the presence of specific microorganisms and different nutrient availability compared to drier soils. Wet-climate soils are important for supporting specific vegetation types and play a crucial role in the ecosystem.
This is due to different soil compositions.
No, glue is not an element. Glue is a substance made up of different chemicals, typically polymers. These chemicals are mixed together to create the adhesive properties of glue.
The human body is made up of molecules of different chemicals.
