Howdy,
Having spaces between particles in your soil is important for plant growth. This is because 1) A fair amount of oxygen is needed for proper root growth. This is the reason most new plants fail. 2) Drainage is important because without it, your bound to get fungus. 3) Simple science dictates that soft soil makes it easy for young plants to get going. Hard soil like that of a Baseball diamond grows almost nothing.
Happy Gardening,

For plant roots and animals to move through it and for the animals to breath.
It is important because the microorganisms living in under the soil take these oxygen.It is also important for anaerobic respiration.You will also find that the earthworms live under the soil takes oxygen deep below in the soil.
Thankyou for questioning me.
See you next time!

Groundwater fills spaces between particles of soil.
pore space
Sandy Soil has the highest infiltration rate as sandy soil has big spaces between its particles.
Soil water is water derived from the runoff of soil. You probably meant to ask what is salt water. (Water that has salt in it - seawater, water from the ocean). Most soil is porous with narrow spaces between the small particles. These spaces act as capillaries and in part govern the motion of water through the soil. When water enters soil, it penetrates the spaces between the small particles and adheres to them.
Loosely packed spoil has spaces between the particles. These space fill with air and water
its groundwater!

actually they create some spaces in between the particles of the soil so that air can pass in and out through the particles ans thus maintains the fertility of the soil. Ex- Earthworm.

Moisture held in tiny spaces between soil particles . It is principal source of moisture for a plant' root.

Water from rainfall and runoff seep into the ground, so it fills the spaces between particles of soil and rock. The water freezes and gets bigger, (expands) and it causes the lifting of rock and soil. ☺
