Climate and vegetation are the active forces in soil formation. Relief modifies the effects of climate and vegetation, mainly through its influence on runoff and temperature. Parent material also affects the kind of profile that forms. Time is needed for changing the parent material into soil. Usually a long time is required for the formation of distinct horizons.
And hence the soil is formed mainly from rocks and minerals.
Hope it helps
