Topsoil is the loose weathered material on Earth's surface in which plants can grow. It is a mixture of minerals, organic matter, water, and air, providing essential nutrients and support for plant growth.
The loose material is called sediment. It may include bits of rock, minerals, and organic material like plant and animal remains. This sediment can accumulate in layers over time and eventually become sedimentary rock through processes like lithification.

Papyrus was a paper-like material made out of the pith of the papyrus plant, Cyperus papyrus. The inner stem of the plant was cut into strips, which were then laid out in two layers—one horizontal and one vertical—pressed together, and dried to create a writing surface. This ancient material was widely used in Egypt and throughout the Mediterranean for recording texts.
The five layers of soil, starting from the surface and moving downward, are the O horizon (organic matter), A horizon (topsoil), E horizon (leached zone), B horizon (subsoil), and C horizon (parent material). These layers differ in their composition, structure, and nutrient content, impacting plant growth and water filtration.
