Tundra and desert biomes have shallow soil profiles because weathering is limited by a lack of?
Tundra and desert biomes have shallow soil profiles because weathering is limited by a lack of moisture. In tundra biomes, cold temperatures slow down the process of weathering. In desert biomes, low precipitation and arid conditions prevent significant weathering processes from occurring.

Tundra and desert biomes have shallow soil profiles because weathering is limited by lack of?
Tundra and desert biomes have shallow soil profiles because weathering is limited by lack of precipitation. The low moisture levels in these biomes hinder the breakdown of rocks into soil, resulting in shallow soil depths. Additionally, the cold temperatures in tundra biomes also limit the rate of weathering and soil formation.
Predict the type of soil that will form in arctic and tropical climates?
Rainfall is minimal, chemical weathering occurs slowly, the soil is thin and consists mainly of regolith(evidence that soil in these areas forms mostly by mechanical weathering) too cold to sustain life, so little humus.
What sea is shallow because it is underlain by continental crust?
This is the Continental Shelf - a marine-eroded platform submerged or exposed at any given time to a depth set by the state of the Earth's ice-cover at the time. (We are presently in an Ice Age interglacial.)
What is firm ridge of sand that appears off the main shoreline due to ocean wave weathering is called a?
The firm ridge of sand that appears off the main shoreline due to ocean wave weathering is called a sandbar. Sandbars commonly form in shallow coastal areas where waves displace sand and create an elevated ridge above the water surface.
Why do shallow earthquakes occur at divergent boundaries?
because the magma gets so hot in these areas that it spew up using the vents. It is shallow because that is where the magma is the hottest- aka only magma that can make it through the hydrothermal vents penis

Why are soil profiles in Arctic shallow?
Because of cold climate, rock materials weather more slowly.

Why you should not dive in the shallow water?
You should not dive in shallow water because we know that it's dangerous but, you'll hit your head.
Why are shallow-rooted plants such as grasses and small shrubs common in polar-tundra?
Shallow-rooted plants such as grasses and small shrubs are common in the polar tundra because of the cold and permafrost. Shallow roots are necessary because the ground remains frozen much of the time.
Do killer whales live in deep or shallow waters?
no they do not live in shallow water because they are way to big.
