Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Answer: Soil that has more sand has the ability to allow more water to percolate down. This is because the sandy soil is loose and water can easily pass through loose soil.
Detailed explanation-2: -Because sandy soils have so much more air space than other types of soil, water evaporates from the surface of the soil at a much faster rate than clay soils.
Detailed explanation-3: -Sand: Sandy soils drain very fast and do not hold water very well. Silt: Silty soils are finer, and smoother in texture and hold the most available water to plants. Clay: The particles that make up clay are the finest and they bind very well to each other and to water particles. More items •04-Jan-2017
