What else can I help you with?
What helps the plants grow in the rain-forest?
Soil humus and sunlight
Is sandy soil better than humus for plants?
in GENERAL a humus rich soil is better for plant growth, but it is dependant on the type of plant - e.g. plants that grow at the coast are at home in very sandy soils.
Does humus help determine what type of soil forms?
Yes, humus is a key component in determining soil fertility and quality as it affects soil structure, water retention, nutrient availability, and microbial activity. The presence of humus can influence soil formation by providing a rich environment for plants to grow and helping to sustain soil health and productivity.
What is the organic material formed in soil from the decayed remains of plants and animals are called?
The organic material formed in soil from the decayed remains of plants and animals is called humus. Humus is rich in nutrients and helps improve soil structure and fertility.
Why is humus important for growth of plants?
Because Humus decays rocks to make soil and soil is a food for plants, which are a food to animals, which are a food to us. So soil is a source if food directly to plants and indirectly to animals and humans (which are mammals)

What is a soil rich in humus and good for growing?
Humus significantly influences the bulk density of soil and contributes to moisture and nutrient retention. Humus refers to any organic matter, that has reached a point of stability.
What kinds of soil contains humus?
All soil contains some humus. If it doesn't it is not soil.
Can plants grow healthily in such soil erosion?
no,soil cannot grow in such soil erosion because soil erosion damages the upper fertile layer of soil which caries away the fertility of soil and take humus from it
The decayed plant and animal material in the soil?
Decayed plant and animal material in the soil is called organic matter. It is a key component for soil fertility as it provides nutrients for plants to grow. Organic matter also improves soil structure and water retention.
Cucumbers grow in what kind of soil?
potting soil and humus
What type of soil do plants not grow well in?
Very few plants will grow in heavy clay soil and not many will grow in sand. Plants need organic material in the soil to enable the roots to penetrate and to nourish the plants, so the more humus soil contains, the better most plants will grow. Plants also do not thrive in very acid or highly alkaline soil. Most plants prefer neutral or slightly acid pH. Sne45: I think clay-like soil, nor do I think plants in sand can grow.
What do you call the part of soil that is recycled dead plants and animals?
Humus
What is the mixture of soil called?
The mixture of soil is called humus, which is a combination of decayed organic matter, minerals, and other substances in the soil that provide nutrients for plants to grow.
