Description
SOIL is a naturally occurring unconsolidated material on the earth surface that has been influenced by parent material, climate, organisms and relief, all acting over a period of time to produce a soil that may differ from the material from which it was derived from in terms of physical, chemical, mineralogical, biological and morphological properties.
Soil is composed of particles of broken rock that have been altered by chemical and mechanical processes that include weathering, erosion and precipitation. Soil is altered from its parent rock due to interactions between the lithosphere, hydrosphere, atmosphere, and the biosphere
Soil therefore is a dynamic and complex media developing under the influence of external factors i.e hydrosphere (water), atmosphere (air) and biosphere (flora and fauna).
Soil science. Is the study of properties and reactions of soils and materials, its relationship with man and how it can be used in the benefit of man.

CORPORATE AND BUSINESS LAWS NOTES
Trending!
‘Law’ means any rule of conduct, standard or pattern, to which actions are required to conform;
if not conformed, sanctions are imposed. When we speak of the law of a State, we use the term
‘law’ in a special and strict sense. In this sense, the term ‘law’ is defined in Oxford English
Dictionary as “the body of rules whether proceeding from formal enactment or from custom,
which a particular State or community recognises as binding on its subjects or members”. These
are rules which are recognised and acted on by courts of justice. Law may also be defined as rule
of conduct of persons (both natural and artificial), imposed upon and enforced among the
members of a given State.
