The E horizon, not listed among the options but implied in the question, typically has very little organic matter or weathered rock. However, since E is not an option and the question seems to be asking about a horizon with no organic matter or weathered rock, the correct answer would be E) Bedrock, as bedrock consists of solid rock and does not contain organic matter or weathered rock. This seems to be a misunderstanding in the question's phrasing, as bedrock is correctly identified for having no organic matter or weathered rock, but the description more accurately fits the characteristics of an E horizon, which is not provided as an option.
