A profile is a cross section in soil.
Soil profile
If the strata layers are folded or tilted then the older rocks can be found on top of the younger rocks in a cross-section.
1. Are you talking about a specific cross section which you have? Without seeing it, there is no way to answer the question. 2. Are you talking about in general? It depends on how deep the soil samples were obtained or if in a trench-type sampling, it depends on what you are seeing. For example, if your plug sample is only 6" deep then that is as deep as the cross section shows! If you dig a trench 4' deep and then look at the side and see that the soil extends down to 18", then the cross section would show 18" as the depth.

A cylinder has a circular cross section that is parallel to its base.
Not a right cross-section.
cross-section of a root
cross-section of a root
A profile is a cross section in soil.
Yes a prism can have a square cross-section
No, a cube cannot have an octagonal cross-section.
The cross section can be a triangle, rectangle or a hexagon.
trapezoidal cross section
Every cross-section of a sphere is a circle.
The cross-section of a cuboid is unified in the shape of a square or a rectangle.
A basketball is a sphere so a cross-section would be a circle.
