    Solution:

    The above statement is false.
    The factors are: Parent material, Relief or topography, Organisms (including human), Climate, Time. These factors interact to form more than 1,108 different soil series. If a single parent material is exposed to different climates then a different soil individual will form. If any of the five factors is changed, but the remaining four remain the same, new soil will form. This process is called “soil genesis”.
    The correct statement would be, there are five factors which are used to differentiate various layers of the soil”.
