Soil I’m important because it helps with the growth of plants/veggies that we eat throughout our life. Without soil, plants do not receive enough nutrients, therefore cashing no growth of plants

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Soil is our life support system. Soils provide anchorage for roots, hold water and nutrients. Soils are home to myriad micro-organisms that fix nitrogen and decompose organic matter, and armies of microscopic animals as well as earthworms and termites. We build on soil as well as with it and in it.
