Answer:

C. It has been moved from another location.

Step-by-step explanation:

Residual soil is that which has been formed by the weathering of the rocks in the same place where it is located, with a virtually zero displacement of the particles, while the transported soil is that which forms a loose mantle, resulting from the disintegration or decomposition of the rocks. Since it is an unconsolidated mantle, its products are transported by water, wind or ice.
