During Podzolization which are accumulated in Bhorizon?

Answer & Solution
Correct Answer: Option D
Podolization is a complex soil formation process by which dissolved organic matter and ions of iron and aluminiun, released through weathering of various minerals, form organo-mineral complexes and are moved from the upper part of the soil profile and deposit in the deeper parts of the soil.
During Podolization, R2O3, CaCO3 and Humus are accumulated in the B horizon. This generally occurs in areas where precipitation is greater than evapotranspiration.
