Answer:

The answer is A-horizon

Explanation:

The A-horizon, often known as topsoil, is the humus layer because it contains a lot of organic material.

  • This layer is made up of organic and other deteriorated components.
  • The topsoil is soft and porous, allowing air and water to flow freely.
  • This stratum is where seeds germinate and new roots emerge and eventually grow into a new plant.
  • This layer contains earthworms, fungi, bacteria, and other microorganisms.

The B-horizon, also known as subsoil, is found beneath the topsoil and above bedrock.

  • This soil is firmer and more compact than topsoil.
  • Humus, soluble minerals and organic compounds are all lower in concentration.

The C-Horizon is devoid of the organic-materials layer made up of fractured bedrock.

A deposit of soil rock that is normally buried beneath the soil is known as bedrock.

  • This layer, which is made up of volcanic, sedimentary, or metamorphic rock, is the soil's parent material.
