That depends where you are on the earth.
Seen from the USA, or from anywhere in the mid-latitudes of the northern Hemisphere,
Ursa Major, Ursa Minor, (big and little dippers), Cassiopeia, and Draco are always up.
The farther north you are, the larger this region is.
From the Southern Hemisphere, a whole different set of objects (with which I'm totally unfamiliar) is always in the sky. The farther south you are, the larger this region is.
Seen from the equator, everything in the sky sets below the horizon every day.

What range of azimuth would include all the locations on the horizon at which stars can rise?
Tricky question when you think about it.There's a patch of stars around the celestial pole that are "circumpolar" ... a kind ofmisleading term that's used to indicate that they don't rise or set, they're always up.The angular radius of the circumpolar region (the altitude of the pole in your sky)is equal to your latitude, and it's also the range of azimuth on your northern orsouthern horizon where no stars rise or set.So we're going to say this: Stars can rise or set anywhere on the horizon ... atazimuths from zero to 360 degrees,excepta space either side of the sub-polar point on your horizon (north horizon in the northern hemisphere, south horizon in the southern hemisphere) equal to yourlatitude, on each side.So, in the northern hemisphere, the answer is:All azimuths between (your latitude) and (360 minus your latitude).In the southern hemisphere, the answer is:All azimuths between (zero) and (180 minus your latitude), or between (180 plus your latitude) and (360).==========================================Epilogue:Looking back over this presentation, the same contributor is suddenlyovercome by a deep conviction that it's baloney. But I'm tired. MaybeI'll come back and fix it. In the meantime, don't use it on a bar bet.

What are the three steps of soil horizons?
The A horizon, the uppermost layer in the soil profile, often is called the surface soil. It is the part of the soil in which life is most abundant in such forms as plant roots, bacteria, fungi, and small animals. It is the part in which organic matter is most abundant. The B horizon lies immediately beneath the A horizon and often is called the subsoil. Lying between the A and C horizons, it utilizes the properties of both. Living organisms are fewer than in the A horizon but more abundant than in the C horizon. THE C horizon is the deepest of the three major horizons. It consists of the loose and partly decayed rock beneath the A and B horizons. The rock material in the C horizon is of the same kind which now forms the bulk of the soil above it.
What kind of soil is found in the A horizon of a soil profile?
The C horizon is based on bedrock. No soil is present that means that it is a layer of no penetration and usually consists of solid rock foundation.
