Answer

Hi,

A bedrock can be described by {a} consist of solid rock and {b} lies below the soil layer

Step-by-step explanation

Bedrock is that rock which lies directly under soil and gravel. Geologically, this is the lithified rock laying under the regolith. It can also underlie other sediments on the ocean floor. Being a consolidated rock, it is solid and tightly bound.

Wish you Luck!
