Question

Clayey soil is :
(A} Light (B} Less aerated (C} Able to hold more water

A.

(A} and (B}

B.

(B} and (C}

C.

(A} and (C}

D.

Only (B}

Correct option is B

The correct answer is (b).
Explanation
Clayey soil has very fine particles that are closely packed together. Due to this compact nature, air spaces are less, making the soil poorly aerated. However, these fine particles can hold a large amount of water, which is why clayey soil has high water retention capacity.
Additional Information
• Option {a} is incorrect because clayey soil is heavy, not light. • Option {c} is incorrect because clayey soil is not light. • Option {d} is incorrect because clayey soil can also hold more water in addition to being less aerated.
