Plants use the soil for anchorage 2). The soil particles act to trap water between them allowing the plant to draw water from it 3). Depending on the coarseness of the soil particles the soil is able to contain air pockets in it allowing for the uptake of Oxygen into the plant 4). The nature of the soil allows nutrients and minerals to be attached to them, enabling the plant access to a ready store of nutrient "food" 5). To help them grow the minerals and nutrients help it grow instead of helping it die.
