Why is water important to humus?
That it makes the nutrients within humus soluble is a reason why water is important to humus. Humus is dark brown, fresh smelling, nutrient rich organic matter. So it's a source of necessary nutrients to plant roots, soil, and soil food web critters. But the nutrients must be in soluble form in order to be available. Otherwise, they're present in soil but unavailable and inaccessible.
Is sandy soil more fertile than soil rich in humus?
Humus can hold more water
A thin layer of weathered rock humus air and water?
Soil is made up of a thin layer of weathered rock, humus, air, and water.
What is the reason the high surface tension of water?
The reason behind the high surface tension of water is hydrogen bonds. This very strong bond enables small insects to walk on the surface of water.
What does a ground that does not soak up water not have enough of?

What is the main ingredients of topsoil?
it could be humus and water or water and weathered rocks
Do humus creates soil spaces which increase the soils ability to hold water?
Yes, humus helps to create soil spaces by improving soil structure through aggregation. This allows for better aeration and drainage, which in turn increases the soil's ability to hold water. Humus also acts like a sponge, absorbing and holding onto water for plant use.
Does humus creates soil spaces which increase the soil and Acirc and acutes ability to hold water?
Yes, humus can help to create soil spaces by improving soil structure, which can increase the soil's ability to hold water. Humus acts like a sponge, absorbing and holding onto water, which can help improve water retention in the soil. This can be beneficial for plant growth and overall soil health.
Does humus hold water well?
Yes, humus holds water well due to its high organic content and ability to bind with water molecules. This nutrient-rich component of soil improves its structure, enhances moisture retention, and increases the soil's overall capacity to absorb and retain water. As a result, humus helps promote healthy plant growth by ensuring adequate moisture availability.
