This is because the rainwater dissolves the minerals in the soil, carrying them away. This leaves the soil with a higher concentration of acids, which can make it difficult for plants to grow.<\/p>\n<p>The other options are incorrect because:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Option a) is incorrect because the high rainfall does not make the soil highly fertile. In fact, it can make it difficult for plants to grow.<\/li>\n<li>Option c) is incorrect because the high rainfall does not make the soil alkaline and saline. In fact, it can make the soil acidic.<\/li>\n<li>Option d) is incorrect because the high rainfall does not make the soil rich in organic matter.
