Subsoil
they are called the 3 horizons Horizon A : topsoil Horizon B : subsoil Horizon C : weathered bedrock
The "six layers" of soil, commonly referred to as master horizons, consist of (in order from top soil to bedrock), the O horizon, the A horizon, the E horizon, the B horizon, the C horizon, and the R horizon.

c horizon is not subsoil it is parent material
Subsoil
The A Horizon (topsoil),B Horizon (subsoil), and C horizon (broken-down bedrock).
horizon a= topsoil horizon b= subsoil i think horizon c im not sure of and then bedrock
Soil layers are called soil horizons. Typically, a soil includes an A horizon, a B horizon and a C horizon. In laymen's terms: A horizon = topsoil B horizon = subsoil C horizon = parent material (the stuff in which the soil formed)
they are called the 3 horizons Horizon A : topsoil Horizon B : subsoil Horizon C : weathered bedrock
the horizon layer is a layer that separates the soil layers. For and example O horizon which is litter ,A horizon which is topsoil ,B horizon which is subsoil , C horizon which is weathered bedrock and R horizon which is unweathered bedrockI Love All My Ask Friends Peace Myah Is Out!!!!

The first layer of soil is called the O Horizon, it is made of primarily humus. The second layer is the A horizon, this is the topsoil. Then there comes the E layer which is the eluvation layer. Next comes the B horizon which is the subsoil, then there is the C horizon which is the regolith, then the final layer is the R layer which is bedrock.
C-horizon: The third layer of soil is known as C-horizon.
