avery and sebastian i agree with you guys because if and oil spill occured you can always put clay to block you and the clay will always absorb it and a FYI isaiah are you disagreeing to this or NOOOOTTT!!!!!!

i think that the sand will have better water absorption because when you poor water it starts to get clumpy and like…. for example if you go to the becah and put sea water in sand water doesnt go straight through it it goes in it.

I think that the properties might determine their properties by texture clumpiness and the materials i nthe soil might determine how much water will be hold because if it is clumpy, those pieces will absorb the water

3) I think the amount of particle size might determined how much water the soils might hold because if there is a lot of big pieces there is a lot of pours. If there is a lot of pours then the soils have a hig permeability which means the water will go through the soils quickly.

1. I think that based on the project the water moves through based on the pouressness or airy spaces of the soil. Like I noticed that when the water was trying to pass through the clay it woul no beccause the clay was thick and it was hardening. that is why it had the lowest perculation rate.
2. The soil that held the most water was clay, because it had no airy spaces, and because of that it had the lowest perculation rate.
3. You can tell about the perculation rate because the one that has the highest absorbancy is the one that has the lowest perculation rate which is clay. And the one that has the lowes absorbancy has the highest perculation rate which was dirt.
