Loam is a type of soil that has sand, silt and clay. A sandy loam would have more of sand in it, with the particles more free and gritty. The water holding capacity of sandy loam would be quite ideal for most plants as it retains just the right amount of water.

Silt is a soil texture, or a soil particle separate. Silt textured soils are used for anything that other soils would be used for, except perhaps the mining of sand or clay.
Silt is the only soil separate that feels like flour, so "b" is the sample highest in silt. Stickiness is a property of clay, as is high plasticity. Grittiness is a term used to describe sandy soils.
Silt contains a lot more usable nutrients for plant life than sand does.
