Sandy soil is more susceptible to erosion.
sandy soil will allow more water because it is more porous than the clayey soil.
because sandy soil can absorb water only at a limit
Because the pore space (the space between soil particles) in sandy soil is so much larger. In sandy soils, the water is drawn by gravity downward and away from the roots quite easily, but in clay soils, the pore space is so much smaller that capillary action holds the water much more tightly. This is the same reason that clay soils flood more easily and take longer to dry out.
It becomes much more susceptible to erosion.
Could be at the edges, but more likely to be a terminal moraine formation. These mounds are just the irregular clumping of clayey moraine material, and their formation is contributed to by the iceblock - caused kettles between them. Note, Terminal Moraine is likely to have lots of clayey material in it from the ground rock flour from the glacier base. Subsequent river/stream erosion into this material is likely to leave tall near-vertical rubble cliffs.

Their both the same, really, just two different names for sand with clay in it, however one might have more clay in one (sandy clay) than the other (clayey sand), but only by miniscule amounts.
I would say Sandy soil because the little pieces of sand can fill in the empty spaces that the bigger pieces of sand can't fill. Hope that helps.
Sandy soils are generally less fertile than clay soils because they do not hold water as well as clay soils. Clay soils are usually fertile and hold more nutrients than sandy soils.

In volcanic rocks, it may be gas bubbles. Otherwise, it may be where certain minerals are more susceptible to solution and erosion.
It is susceptible to chemical weathering more than other rocks from exposure to naturally acidic rainfall and groundwater.
There are many but a couple would be to reduce tillage in order to leave more plant residue on the ground thus reducing wind erosion. Another is to to put waterways in areas that are susceptible to water erosion.
