The main source of organic matter in soil is the plant and animal tissue that decompose at each level of breakdown.

NADP - Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide Phosphate is one of the carrier molecules that transfers high-energy electrons from chlorophyll to other molecules.

NADP+ is the molecule that accepts the electrons given by water. Its reduction by the protein FNR (Ferredoxin NADP+ reductase) gives NADPH,H+.

NADPH,H+ can be used in the Calvin Cycle to reduce 1,3-Biphosphoglycerate (1,3-BPG) into Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate (G3P), a monosaccharide. It becomes NADP+ again and the cycle keeps repeating as long as the chloroplast receives sufficient and appropriate light.

The soil is formed by breaking down of large rock surfaces into pieces due to water, wind and all atmospheric changes by mixing with plants and animal decays. This process is called as weathering.
