The thick top layer of interlaced leaves is called a canopy. Canopies are formed by the uppermost branches of trees in a forest or jungle and often create a dense layer of vegetation that blocks sunlight from reaching the forest floor. This layer is critical for providing shade, shelter, and habitat for many species of plants and animals.

Forest soil is typically characterized by a thick organic layer composed of decomposed leaves, branches, and other plant material. It has high nutrient content due to the continual recycling of organic matter by the forest ecosystem. Forest soil is also often acidic and well-drained, supporting a diverse range of plant and animal life.
