Solution

The correct option is B $A_{2}$
Leaching is the process by which soluble nutrients are lost from the soil. The A horizon of the soil is the surface layer that consists largely of minerals. The A $_{2}$ horizon of this layer shows the maximum leaching.
So, the correct option is 'A $_{2}$ '.
