Answer 1

Water

Step-by-step explanation:

Water is not considered organic matter in soil. Organic matter typically consists of once-living materials, such as plant and animal remains, microorganisms, and their byproducts. Water, on the other hand, is a chemical compound composed of hydrogen and oxygen atoms and does not contain carbon-hydrogen bonds that define organic matter.
