Residual soil and transported soil differ by as follows:

Residual soil stays over its parent rock and transported soil forms from particles from another place.

Step-by-step explanation:

Soil forms from weathering of rock. When a rocks get weathered it creates small paiticles. That forms different kind of soil. Soil varies in texture, structure, colour, composition and in pH level. Each and every soil type produced from parent rock. Depending upon the character of parent rock soil type is determined like basalt the igneous rock forms black soil.

Residual soil stays over parent rock it does not get off by the activities of natural agents like air, water, wind and glacier. Transported soil comes from hilly area to flat topped ground by transportation through some transporting agents of nature. It is immature soil.
