What is the correct order of particles that give texture to soil from smallest to largest?

Answer 1

The correct order of soil particles from smallest to largest is as follows:

1. Clay (smallest particles)
2. Silt
3. Sand (largest particles)

These particle sizes contribute differently to the texture and properties of the soil, with clay providing fine texture and high nutrient and water retention, silt offering a balance of properties, and sand improving drainage and aeration.
