Sand is granular and coarse meaning that water and nutrients can flow through it quite easily. Clay on the other hand has very fine particles that cling together to form a waterproof substance which traps/ stops any nutrients or water from moving down. Clay's also quite difficult for plants to get their roots into. Silt has a texture between clay and sand, meaning that it is the ideal substance as it allows the best water and nutrition movement in the soil. Most plants will grow best in silt, but there are some plants who are more adapted to living in sand (e.g. Marram grass) or clay.

Answer:
The correct answer is option A) "cause iron in ocean water and terrestrial rocks to rust (oxidize)".
Explanation:
During ancient times, the reproduction success of plants and cyanobacterias led to the accumulation of oxygen gas in the atmosphere. One early consequence of this accumulation was the oxidation of the iron in ocean water and terrestrial rocks. This phenomenon is the cause of banded iron formations, which formed in seawater and sank to the ocean bed.
