∙ 14y agoThe soil material described would be classified as a clay soil. Clay soils have high clay content, low sand content, and low silt content.
The soil material you are referring to is known as clay soil. Clay soil has a high clay content, typically more than 40%, with relatively low sand and silt percentages. Clay soil is known for its small particle size and tendency to hold water, making it often difficult to work with for gardening and farming.
Decaying material found in soil is called organic matter. It includes plant and animal residues in various stages of decomposition that contribute to soil fertility and structure.
The base material from which soil is created is called parent material. This can be rock, sediment, organic matter, or a combination of these materials that undergo weathering and decomposition processes to form soil.
Decayed organic material in soil is called humus. Humus is rich in nutrients and helps improve soil structure, fertility, and water retention.
Dead and decaying material produced in soil is called organic matter. This material consists of decomposed plant and animal residues, such as leaves, roots, and organisms, which add nutrients to the soil and improve its structure.

Bedrock is called the parent material of soil because it is the underlying layer from which soil is formed through weathering and erosion processes over time. The composition and properties of bedrock influence the characteristics of the soil that develops on top of it.
Material that was once living in the soil is called organic matter. This includes plant and animal remains, as well as microbes that break down organic materials. Organic matter plays a crucial role in soil health and fertility by providing nutrients for plants and promoting soil structure.

The decayed organic material in soil is called detrition. This is the broken down results of leaves and other organic substances.
The base material from which soil is created is called parent material. This can be rock, sediment, organic matter, or a combination of these materials that undergo weathering and decomposition processes to form soil.
'Decomposition' for decaying plant and animal organic material. 'Detritus' for inorganic decaying material in soil. Hope this helps, John

The dark organic material that forms in soil as plant and animal matter decays is called humus. Humus is rich in nutrients and helps improve soil structure, moisture retention, and microbial activity, making it essential for healthy and fertile soil.

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.
