Top soil is the upper layer of soil available in a field, usually about the top six inches. It is made up of sand, silt, clay, and organic matter. Manure is animal solid waste, usually from livestock. It is frequently applied to the fields as a source of plant nutrients.
To effectively use sheep manure as a fertilizer in your garden, you should first compost the manure to reduce the risk of burning your plants. Mix the composted manure into the soil before planting or use it as a top dressing around existing plants. Make sure to water the garden well after applying the manure to help nutrients seep into the soil. Regularly monitor the soil's nutrient levels and adjust the amount of manure used accordingly.
Use it as a mulch over the top of the soil to suppress weeds.

Throughflow is the tranfer of water through th soil. Surface runoff is the transfer of water where the soil is impermeable so the transfer of water is on top of the soil.
Clay soil can be amended without tilling by adding organic matter such as compost, mulch, or manure on top of the soil. This helps improve soil structure, drainage, and fertility over time without disturbing the soil layers.
I think yes, because the top soil and local soil is more difference each other.
If your soil is mostly clay, you can improve the soil by adding composted matter. Any organic matter will help, like well rotted manure, leaves, table scraps...fresh manure is "hot" and can burn the roots of young plants, so make sure the manure is well rotted. Adding some sand helps the soil to drain. Remember, you cannot permanently change soil in an area. it will eventually revert back to clay, so you must amend the soil every year. The other thing you can do is to remove all of the soil with a heavy equipment and bring in new top soil that is not mostly clay, but this is expensive.
Controlling the presence of ammonia in the soil and encouraging soil fertility and structure are reasons why cow manure can be used in composting.Specifically, cow manure can be used in a special kind of composting. It involves spreading the manure 1-3 inches (2.54-7.62 centimeters) thick over the surface of the ground. The layer then is incorporated into the top 5 inches (12.7 centimeters) of soil by digging and mixing. The underground presence of fresh, moist cow manure discourages the presence of ammonia and of anaerobic breakdown and encourages the accessibility of available nutrients and the formation of air and water pore space. It is conducive to properly aerated, drained, and fertile soils.

Solum refers to the top layer of soil that supports plant growth and contains organic matter, while regolith is the layer of loose, fragmented material that covers bedrock. Regolith includes material like rock fragments, dust, and soil that have undergone weathering processes.
You didn't add a second item to compare to. The difference between washing powder for top loading... and what ???
