    Answer: (c) Leaching
    Main reason of laterite soils
    formation is due to intense leaching.
    … Leaching happens due to high
    tropical rains and high temperature.
    As a result of high rainfall, lime and
    silica are leached away, and soils
    rich in iron oxide and aluminium
    compound are left behind.
