Answer 2

Soil is made up of two main components–one that comes from living things and the other from non-living things. What are these components?

ANSWER:

The two components of soil are as follows:

1. Humus: Humus is the dark, brown coloured component of the soil and is produced by dead remains of living things.

2. Mineral particles: Mineral particles include minerals such as potassium, calcium and magnesium. These are derived from rocks (non-living things).
