• Prefer the Attachment above

⟹Soil is formed by the process of weathering during which rocks break down to form soil particles.

⟹Weathering can be physical, chemical, and biological.

⟹The bedrock breaks down into pieces due to the effects of heat, cold, water, wind, and rain.

⟹Microbes, insects, and rodents also help in this processSoil minerals form the basis of soil.

⟹Water, wind, temperature change, gravity, chemical interaction, living organisms and pressure differences all help break down parent material
