What is the difference between poorly sorted and well sorted sediments?

A well sorted soil has particles which are all a similar size, a well graded soil would be classified as poorly graded. Whereas a poorly sorted soil has a wide range of particle sizes and is classified as well graded. On a particle size distribution a well sorted soil gives a steep gradient.
