Which sediment do you think will allow water to pass through most easily?
<b> Wouldn't you think the larger particles would fit together more loosely and have more spaces between each other and that would allow water to flow more rapidly?</b>
Which sediment do you think could hold the most water?
<b>Wouldn't you think the smallest particles will fit more closely together, less space between particles, thus holding more water?</b>
