Answer :

less nutrient rich than the A horizon

Answer:

less nutrient rich than the A horizon

Explanation:

B horizon is the layer of the soil present below the uppermost horizon (the A horizon). B horizon is characterized by the presence of lesser amount of humus as compared to the humus present in A horizon. The lesser humus content in B horizon makes it less nutrient-rich compared to the A horizon. B horizon is a hard and compact soil layer.
