One way in which soil is formed is from the weathering of rock. When water and wind break down rock, particles from the rock are turned into soil. Also, the decomposition of plant remains turn into soil because after the plant remains have been eroded, those parts or particles turn into soil. It's the same with animal remains, too.
WEATHERING meaning the breaking down of rocks
Yes, by series of processes that gradually breaks it down and disintegrates its parts into regoliths and soil. This process of soil formation is known as "Pedogenesis".
is soil part of rock cycle
soil is crushed rock. so is sand and clay
The rock will turn to fertile soil.
It can become a part of soil. Soil is a mixture of organic and mineral/rock components. Just about any rock type can contribute to the inorganic portion.

No. Rock and soil are mixtures.
soil- Clayey soil, sandy soil, and loamy soil rock-metamorphic rock, instrusive/extrusive rock, sediments
is soil part of rock cycle
You know how the soil grows plants like in the rock but if there is no soil then the plant won't grow in the rock.
soil is crushed rock. so is sand and clay
soil is formed by weathering because the bigger rock break the little rock and makes soil.
