Soil Formation and Composition notes
... C. As plants shed leaves they form a loose layer of litter on the ground. Dead plants also add to the litter and over time they decay to form humus. D. Humus is formed by decomposition. This is where organisms, called decomposers, that live in the soil turn the dead organic material into humus. E. F ...

This may come from some sort of limestone parent material or it may be injected into the rocks after they form and be present in the soil as nodules. The test for the presence of calcareous deposits is simple. A few mm of dilute acid (suc ...

Soil food web
The soil food web is the community of organisms living all or part of their lives in the soil. It describes a complex living system in the soil and how it interacts with the environment, plants, and animals. Food webs describe the transfer of energy between species in an ecosystem. While a food chain examines one, linear, energy pathway through an ecosystem, a food web is more complex and illustrates all of the potential pathways. Much of this transferred energy comes from the sun. Plants use the sun’s energy to convert inorganic compounds into energy-rich, organic compounds, turning carbon dioxide and minerals into plant material by photosynthesis. Plants are called autotrophs because they make their own energy; they are also called producers because they produce energy available for other organisms to eat. Heterotrophs are consumers that cannot make their own food. In order to obtain energy they eat plants or other heterotrophs.
