Yes, they do. It came straight out of my Science book. I assume that whoever is searching this up was like me and either to lazy to bring their book home, or just to lazy to open it up. Haha, good luck!
Earthworms do most of the work of mixing humus with other materials in soil. Earthworms and burrowing animals also help aerate, or mix air into, the soil.
Earthworms are the main contributors to enriching and improving soil for plants, animals and humans. Earthworms eat the soil which has organic matter such as decaying vegetation or leaves. After organic matter is digested, the earthworm releases waste from their bodies called castings. Castings contain many nutrients that plants can use.
Humus is formed when organic material (such as leaves , dead animals etc) is disgraded by a combination of fungi,bacteria,microbes and other animals((earthworms for example) that reside in the soil.
HUMUS IS A DARK-COLORED,MINERAL SUBSTANCE THAT DEVELOPS AS DEAD PLANTS AND ANIMALS.loam is soil with a crumbly texture that is made of equal parts of clay,sand,and silt.
Earthworms eat a variety of organic matter such as decaying leaves, plant material, and other decomposing organic materials found in soil. On average, earthworms can consume up to half their body weight in food per day.
Earthworms are generally solitary. large groups of earthworms usually congregate because of good soil conditions, not because of other worms. Earthworms are generally solitary. large groups of earthworms usually congregate because of good soil conditions, not because of other worms.
The O-Horizon
Carrying out various tests such as heating or mixing with other chemicals can help to identify unknown materials. Heating can give different smells and different colors.
Because earthworms eat just about every other organism in the soil.
A type of decayed plant is known as humus. It forms from the decomposition of organic matter, such as leaves, dead plants, and other plant materials, and is rich in nutrients. Humus plays a crucial role in soil health, improving its structure, water retention, and fertility, which supports plant growth.
