Answer:

Soil is formed by a process called weathering. Weathering is the process that breaks down large rocks into smaller pieces. ... These small pieces of rocks form soil by mixing with decaying plants and animal parts.The time needed to form a soil depends on the latitude: in environments characterized by a mild climate, it takes 200-400 years to form 1 cm of soil. in wet tropical areas soil formation is faster, as it takes 200 years. in order to accumulate enough substances to make a soil fertile it takes 3000 years.
