Question
which describes sand?
o fine - grained
o retains water
o water drains quickly
o good for growing crops
Brief Explanations
Sand has larger particles compared to fine - grained soils like clay. Due to the larger pore spaces between sand particles, water drains quickly through sand. It does not retain water well (unlike clay which retains water), and it is not good for growing most crops (as it lacks proper water - holding and nutrient - holding capacity). Fine - grained is more characteristic of clay or silt.
