sed on this evidence, it is most likely a _____________. You cannot estimate the texture without performing a soil sieve analysis. a. Sandy loam b. Silty clay c. Clay Sand
The soil sieve test is an analysis or a graduation test or procedure to access the particles and the size distribution of the granular material and that is stopped by the fraction of the whole mass.
And this size distribution is critically important to the way the material performed and used, and includes the sands, and the crushed rock, the clays, and the granite, and feldspars, the coal, the soil, a wide range of powders, and the grain, etc.
The silt clay has bigger particle size and they also being inorganic in nature and has a higher percentage of clay than silt and that of the sand loans have a higher concentration of spoil that gives them the jittery feeling.
