In general, soil contains 40-45% inorganic matter, 5% organic matter, 25% water, and 25% air. In order to sustain plant life, the proper mix of air, water, minerals, and organic material is required. Humus, the organic material in soil, is composed of microorganisms (dead and alive) and decaying plants.
