Top soil is the upper layer of soil available in a field, usually about the top six inches. It is made up of sand, silt, clay, and organic matter. Manure is animal solid waste, usually from livestock. It is frequently applied to the fields as a source of plant nutrients.

Noun
A chemical or natural substance added to soil to increase its fertility is known as Fertilizer.
Synonyms
manure - dung - dressing
Manure
, of course, is animal feces .Manure is
applied at least three months Prior to crops grown in areas, so that pathogens present in manure, such as E.coli, do not
contaminate the food. Horse, cow, sheep and poultry manure are commonly used this way. Dog, cat and human feces, which are not suitable for soil enhancement.
Compost
can be made up of many ingredients .These include, but are not limited to, grass clippings, dead plants, mulched leaves, twigs and other yard waste; kitchen scraps such as banana peels, apple cores, orange and grapefruit rinds, rotting vegetables, coffee grounds and filters, tea bags; paper waste including newspaper, cardboard egg cartons, toilet paper rolls, shredded office paper; water and activators. The ingredients are combined in layers in a bin, allowed to ripen in the sun, and turned every couple of months. Over time, the materials break down and become compost, a natural soil enhancement product. The activators help the compost decompose more quickly. Several ingredients can be used as activators, including dried blood, lime, a scoop of dirt or compost, urine and manure.
Use it as a mulch over the top of the soil to suppress weeds.

Throughflow is the tranfer of water through th soil. Surface runoff is the transfer of water where the soil is impermeable so the transfer of water is on top of the soil.
I think yes, because the top soil and local soil is more difference each other.
If your soil is mostly clay, you can improve the soil by adding composted matter. Any organic matter will help, like well rotted manure, leaves, table scraps...fresh manure is "hot" and can burn the roots of young plants, so make sure the manure is well rotted. Adding some sand helps the soil to drain. Remember, you cannot permanently change soil in an area. it will eventually revert back to clay, so you must amend the soil every year. The other thing you can do is to remove all of the soil with a heavy equipment and bring in new top soil that is not mostly clay, but this is expensive.
Controlling the presence of ammonia in the soil and encouraging soil fertility and structure are reasons why cow manure can be used in composting.Specifically, cow manure can be used in a special kind of composting. It involves spreading the manure 1-3 inches (2.54-7.62 centimeters) thick over the surface of the ground. The layer then is incorporated into the top 5 inches (12.7 centimeters) of soil by digging and mixing. The underground presence of fresh, moist cow manure discourages the presence of ammonia and of anaerobic breakdown and encourages the accessibility of available nutrients and the formation of air and water pore space. It is conducive to properly aerated, drained, and fertile soils.

Solum refers to the top layer of soil that supports plant growth and contains organic matter, while regolith is the layer of loose, fragmented material that covers bedrock. Regolith includes material like rock fragments, dust, and soil that have undergone weathering processes.
Potting soil generally holds water better than topsoil because it's formulated with materials like peat moss or coconut coir that retain moisture well. Topsoil is more suitable for providing nutrients to plants but may need additional amendments to improve water retention.
You didn't add a second item to compare to. The difference between washing powder for top loading... and what ???
Depth refers to the distance from the top or surface to the bottom of an object, while thickness refers to the measurement of the distance between opposite sides of an object. In simpler terms, depth is vertical measurement while thickness is horizontal measurement.
