The rate of soil formation cannot be increased.
t or f

True.

Explanation: Soil formation takes place by weathering of rocks to form minerals and then these minerals forms soil. By increasing  weathering soil formation can be increased.

The layer of the top soil can be increased by increasing the available organic material.

The climatic conditions can also increase the rate of soil formation by increasing the rate of weathering.

the three components of a nucleotide are the nitrogenous base, the phosphate group and the five-carbon sugar.

the solute can move "downhill," from regions of higher to lower concentration, relying on the specificity of the protein carrier to pass through the membrane. this process is called passive transport or facilitated diffusion, and does not require energy.
