How does a worm improve the quality of the soil in which it lives?
Worms improve soil quality by burrowing, which helps aerate the soil and create channels for air and water to penetrate deeper.

Worms also break down organic matter, speeding up the decomposition process and returning valuable nutrients to the soil.
