    Soil is formed through the weathering and decay of rock and organic material. Various environmental factors like temperature changes, frost, drought, and living organisms such as bacteria, fungi and plants break down inorganic and organic matter into humus. Water and air also play a role in the chemical and physical breakdown of materials that form soil.
