Dirt Around Quizzyland

Answer: Earthworm

The earth worm mainly lives in the dirt, although some species rise to the surface to mate or eat other organic matter. The earth worm's movement around the dirt aerates and mixes the soil, and even creates nutrients good for many plants. This makes the earth worm great for farmers and gardeners. Most worms will also take organic material like dead leaves and manure, and bring it down in the ground either to plug their burrow or to use as food.

They usually tear the material to shreds, and they partially digest it.

When it leaves the worm's body, it will mix with intestinal secretions, thus fertilizing the soil. By aerating the soil, the earthworm keeps open passages for water to drain into the soil for plants to pick up, and also makes easy passages for oxygen to travel.

Answer: film of dust

A movie is a film. This is the first word. Household filth is dust, the second word. Put this together to make a film of dust. When you see a film of dust it is usually because there is dust in the air and it settles on the surface. Dust will land everywhere, and it is always in the air, so you can never get rid of it completely. Dust can be described as any solid material smaller than 500 micrometers. Dust in the home is mainly made up of dead skin cells.

It is estimated that the entire outer layer of skin is shed every one or two days.

In order to shed an entire layer so quickly, scientists have estimated that you lose skin flakes at a rate of 7 million cells a minute. That is a lot of skin flakes!
