Which layer in soil contains the most organic matter?
the layer the contain the richest material is the top soil :)
Weathering occurs most rapidly in what horizon?
mostly o horizon, but some also occur in the a horizon
Which soil horizon is the most important agriculturally?
The A horizon as it consists of mainly organic matter.
What material is most likely to break if you strike it with a hammer sodium chloride or bronze?
Sodium Chloride
Five things about the make up of soil?
Soil is composed of five distinct horizons. In order from closest to the surface to farthest away from the surface, they are: the O Horizon, A Horizon, E Horizon, B Horizon, and C Horizon. The O Horizon - or "organic" horizon, is composed mainly of loose and partly decayed organic matter such as leaves and teems with microscopic life. The A Horizon is mineral matter mixed with some humus (the decayed remains of animal and plant life). Together, the O and A Horizons make up what is known as topsoil. Below the A Horizon is the E Horizon, which is made up of light colored mineral particles. It contains little organic matter. The B Horizon is an accumulation of clay transported from above as water percolates through the upper horizons. The B Horizon is also known as "subsoil". The O, A, E, and B Horizons are collectively called "Solum", or "True soil". The C Horizon is partially altered parent material. Although this material is undergoing changes that will eventually turn it into soil, it still possess most of the characteristics of the bedrock underneath and has not crossed the boundary that separates regolith from soil.
Where might we find most likely find material from the young solar system?
In comets
Which layer in a soil profile contains the most organic matter the A horizon or O horizon?
The O horizon contains the most organic matter in a soil profile. It is the top layer of organic material such as decaying leaves, branches, and other plant debris that is actively decomposing. The A horizon, also known as the topsoil, is a layer rich in minerals and organic matter that is developed from the decomposition of plant material in the O horizon.
In which horizon layer would you expect to find the most humus?
organic
What was the first material?
most likely RNA
Which layer in soil contains the most organic matter?
the layer the contain the richest material is the top soil :)
What planet in east 600 AM Sep 22?
Venus is the most likely, however, Saturn will be low on the horizon.
Which layer in a soil profile contains the most organic matter?
The O horizon contains the most organic matter. The O horizon overlies the A horizon which is known as the mineral horizon. O - organic A - mineral E - elluviation B - illuviation C - parent material R - bedrock This is the order in which you will see standard soil horizons.
Which material will most likely be found in the mantle?
Olivine.
The first genetic material was most likely?
RNA
What is the most likely material to be transported as suspended load?
clay.
Most plant roots grow in which horizon?
most plants grow in the a-horizon
Is the solid of matter in which a material is most likely to resist compression?
Yes
