soil is the result of chemical or physical weathering of a parent rock .this is so since the soil is just tiny particle of the huge parent rock and hence it affects soil composition . if the parent rock was made of limestone then the soil composition will constitute calcite and aragonite mineral elements from the limestone parent rock.
