Why is surface runoff not absorbed by soil with a high clay content?

This is because clay slowly absorbs water. It may take a few minutes+, but eventually it does happen. Since rain falls rather quickly, there is not much time for the clay to absorb the water floing on the ground, therefore there would be more runoff in places where the soil has a high clay content.

How does the speed of clay in soil affect plant growth?

Soils with high clay content are able to retain water and are generally classed as fertile. Vegetation on these soils is usually more vigorous and of greater diversity. A high clay content also means that the soil can retain more nutrients such as fertiliser for a longer period of time, therefore increasing the nutrients the plants absorb, and therefore, lol, increasing the speed at which the plant will grow! Haha there that's my answer.
