Detailed Solution

Parent rock is characterised by cracks and crevices.
A soil profile is a vertical segment of soil from the ground's surface to the Parent rock that reveals several soil horizons or layers. Partially weathered rock fragments can be found in the parent rock, also referred to as the C horizon. Cracks and fissures are typically its defining characteristics. Digging past this layer is really difficult. The bedrock is the solid, hard rock that lies beneath the dirt and gravel of the surface. Sand and other sediments on the ocean floor are also supported by bedrock. Consolidated rock, or bedrock, is a rock that is solid and strongly connected. The layer of soil beneath the topsoil on the ground's surface is known as the subsoil.
