Soil erosion by action of rain can be caused y all the following except

  1. scanty vegetation
  2. steep slopes
  3. aridity ✓
  4. tropical rainstorms
Explanation

Rain erodes soil most where the ground is bare, steep or hit by heavy storms. Scanty vegetation, steep slopes and tropical rainstorms all increase erosion.

Aridity means very little rain, so rain erosion is small there. It is the exception.
