HUMUS
• A brown or black organic substance consisting of partially or wholly decayed vegetable or animal matter that provides nutrients for plants and increases the ability of soil to retain water.

SOIL PARTICLESAlthough humus is often mixed in with soil particles, it is not actually soil. Soil is non-organic: made of rock particles.
Humus is decayed plant and animal matter, made up of organic fragments of things that once lived.
