Yes, all living things depend directly or indirectly on soil. Soil provides essential nutrients, water, and support for plant growth, which in turn sustains animals and humans that rely on plants for food. Soil also plays a crucial role in nutrient cycling and maintaining biodiversity in ecosystems.
What roles do nitrogen-fixing bacteria serve in the nitrogen cycle?
Nitrogen fixing bacteria play an important role in the soils of earth. Soil is the interface of the atmosphere, the lithosphere, the hydrosphere, and the biosphere. This interface is the most important ecosystem for all life on earth. Mankind depend on agriculture and livestock which depend on a continuous supply of nutrients in the soil. Similarly the animal life in any ecosystem depends on the plants which depend on a well nourished soil. without nitrogen fixing bacteria continually cycling atmospheric nitrogen (N2) back into the soil as plants continually remove this nitrogen, fixing it into their own organic structures, the soil would soon be depleted of nitrogen.
How do plants and animals get nitrogen if not from the atmosphere?
if not from the atmosphere , they must depend on a process called nitrogen fixation. They get it from the soil. That's why farmers add fertilizer to the soil to increase nitrogen content
How do decomposers supply phosphorus to soil?
Decomposers release phosphorus into the soil from decaying animals and plants. Plants can now take up the phosphates in the soil. When animals eat the plants, they then have phosphates in them and they are released back into the soil through waste and decompostion (decaying).
What types of soil that is the best of plants?

How do plants depend on environment for their survival?
Plants require minerals and water from the soil, sunlight for photosyntesis.
Do plants grow better in?
The type of soil that plants grow better in will depend on the type of plant. Universally, all plants will require a type of soil that drains well, is rich in nutrients and has a proper pH.
How do plants and animals depend upon each other?
Lifecycle on the earth is interdependent. 1) plants get nutrient elements from the soil. 2) herbivores animals eat this plants. 3) carnivores animals depend on herbivores for food. 4) when the carnivores dies the body gets decomposed in soil IN this way they are interrelated
What are the uses of soil?
It is very good for the growth of plants because it contains humus and lome .Humans indirectly depend on soil for the growth of plants which provide food to humans. Humans use soil for farming, building houses, office buildings etc .
How can pitcher plants live in areas with poor soils?
