Does soil require energy for metabolism?
The short answer is: No, soil is never metabolized so energy is not required for its metabolism. More specifically: By definition, only living organisms metabolize anything. And, when they do, energy is always required. But the metabolism of soil never occurs as soil itself contains no nutrient and remains undigested and is excreted unchanged when a living organism ingests it. Two examples of ingesting soil come to mind among higher organisms: Earthworms do eat some wet soil so as to extract vegetable matter from it, but they metabolize only the latter and excrete the soil unchanged and therefore not metabolized. Elephants are also known to eat some soil from which their organism selects useful bacteria to keep but excretes the soil undigested and therefore not metabolized. Among lower organisms, plants do not ingest soil but extract soluble minerals and electrolytes from it through their roots and metabolize these using energy.
Why is soil so fragile?

What are some solutions of soil erosion?
One way is to plant grass or things that have roots that grow in the ground to hold on to the soil, so if something happens the soil wont be moved...:)

Why is a tree root a decomposer?
Because the nutrients from the soil are made up of dead organisms and the roots extract nutrients from the soil and use it so the plant can grow. Decomposers recycle once-living matter by breaking it down into energy-rich substances

haha so which one of you chilldress ipc people asked this one haha
Why is losing soil bad?
soil is one of the primary resources for vegetation, if we lose soil the possibility of vegetation becomes zero so the existence of life on earth.
