The layer of soil that would typically not have any plant material growing there is the C layer (option A).

The O horizon (option C) is the organic layer where decomposed plant material is found, while the A horizon (option B) is the topsoil, which contains a significant amount of organic material and living plant roots. In contrast, the C horizon consists of weathered parent material and is usually devoid of plant life.
