Which type of soil is widely distributed over the Ganga basin?

  • A.Red soil
  • B.Black soil
  • C.Alluvial soil
  • D.Laterite soil

Answer: C

Alluvial soil is widely distributed over the Ganga basin. The river carries silt from the Himalayas and deposits it on the plains, building thick alluvial layers that are fertile and support wheat and rice. Red soil is found on crystalline rocks of the peninsula, black soil on the Deccan lava region, and laterite soil in the regions of heavy rain and high temperature, such as the Western Ghats. So the Ganga plain is associated with alluvium.
