  • The topmost layer of the earth is known as soil.
  • The process by which soil is formed is called weathering.
  • Weathering takes millions of years.
  • Weathering is done when the natural forces such as wind ,water ,ice temperature etc act upon rocks and break them down into smaller particles.
  • Soil consists of humus ,minerals , sand ,silt ,gravel ,clay ,rocks etc.
