Solution
- Essentially, the color of soil (brown, yellow, or red) is determined by ferric or oxidized iron compounds.
- In general, the more organic content a soil contains, the darker its color.
- The temperature of the soil increases as the organic content increases, as the darker color indicates that it absorbs more heat.
