These elements are synthetic elements in that they do not occur naturally and only as a result of being made in a scientific laboratory. Elements are given the Uu(x) name as a placeholder until IUPAC (International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry) approves an actual name for the element. This is under a process called "systematic element naming" (feel free to give it a google). The IUPAC grants the discoverers of the new element the right to suggest the name for that new element, so you may find that those weird Uu(x) elements have an actual name soon!!

Which soil horizon is located closest to the earth's crust?
Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer: O horizon

Horizons refers to the distinct layers of soil lying parallel to the earth surface. Horizons develop as a result of soil formation. Soil forms as a result of weathering or rocks and addition of organic matter from the decomposition of plant and animal waste. Each horizon differs from the others on the basis of color, texture, type of particles present in the soil, type of minerals present and amount of organic matter present in the soil.

O horizon is the soil horizon that is located closest to the earth's crust. This horizon consist of undecayed or partially decayed animal and plant waste like shedded leaves, bark, animal skin and feces. As, the matter remains undecomposed, therefore, this horizon consists of low amount of organic matter and it is less fertile for plant growth.
