(1) A soil horizon is a layer of soil that is generally parallel to the crust, the physical properties of which differ above and below. Thus, the answer to this first question is the third choice. (2) The drying out of the once very wet lands of the Everglades is brought about by the change in climate. Thus, the answer is the fourth choice.
