How Soil is formed and soil profile
Product Code : JA-GSC-2961
The Soil Formation and Soil Profile chart (SKU JA-GSC-2961) is a wall chart on how soil is formed and the soil profile for science teaching. Soil forms slowly as rocks are broken down by weathering and mixed with humus, and a cut through the ground shows layers called horizons that make up the soil profile. Laminated and fitted with plastic rollers, this soil profile chart hangs in a classroom or laboratory as one large shared reference for middle school science and secondary geography classes.
