What type of substance is a soil?
It is the unconsolidated or loose covering of fine rock particles that covers the surface of the earth. matter.
What is the blanket of gases covering Earth's surface?

What earth material covering the surface of a landfill would permit the least rainwater to infiltrate the surface?
soil
Why do you think wind erosion occurs at a faster rate in deserts than in places with thick layer of vegetation covering ground?
In damp areas with thick vegetation, there isn't as much sand or dust on the surface to be picked up and carried by the wind.
What is the settling of the particles on a sediment or other surface?

Desert pavement
Do dust particles damage the lung by covering the surface of the blood vessels next to the alveoli?
no
How prominence like sunspot?
Solar prominences are gouts of charged particles carried from the surface of the sun into space. These particles are carried by magnetic fields, but of course the surface of the Sun is too hot for any magnetic material (>6 000oC). The source of the magnetic field in turn is caused by huge electrical currents of charged particles near the Sun's surface.

How do eluviation and illuviation differ?
in eluviation the mineral particles are generally carried downwards the surface while on contrast illuviation is a leaching process where such minerals are brought to the surface, they are both leaching processes
Why do a thin covering form on the surface of tea when you keep it while in a cup?
As the tea cools, the oils, minerals, and other particles in the tea sometimes rise to the top.
What is vaporization that occurs on the surface of a liquid?
That would be evaporation; the particles inside the liquid escape from the surface and into the atmosphere/air.
Which tissues are present in the covering of the seeds?
surface
