When it comes to weathering and decomposition how do the activities of organisms help from soil?

Organisms help with weathering and decomposition by breaking down organic matter into simpler forms that enrich the soil, such as releasing nutrients and minerals. They also help aerate the soil and create channels that allow water and air to penetrate deeper into the ground. Additionally, some organisms produce acids that can accelerate the breakdown of rocks and minerals in a process known as biological weathering.
