Would sandy soil lose water more quickly or would clay soil why?
Sand soil
Which soil will allow more water sandy soil or clayey soil why?
sandy soil will allow more water because it is more porous than the clayey soil.
Why does clayey soil absorb more water than sandy soil?
because sandy soil can absorb water only at a limit
Which has more energy to cause erosion quickly moving water or slowly moving water?
Quickly moving water has more energy to cause erosion because quickly moving water digs deeper into the ground than slower water. Hope I Helped!!
How can you increase soils ability to hold water?
In order for soil to increase its ability to hold water it must have a higher amount of clay present in it. The more clay present in the soil, the more water it will hold. The opposite to this is how sandy or grainy the soil is, if it is too sandy then it will not hold water very well.
Would sandy soil lose water more quickly or would clay soil why?
Sand soil
Is a low sodium diet going to help you lose weight quickly?
Yes, a low sodium diet can help to lose weight quickly. The reason for this is because sodium causes the body to hold onto more water which results in more water weight. So when less sodium is consumed, the body won't hold onto as much water and in turn helping you lose weight.
Why does ice form quickly on lakes at first but the slower?
Ice forms very quickly on top of a lake because the water is in direct contact with the air, and can lose heat very quickly. Once ice forms on top, it serves to insulate the water below it, making it more difficult for that water to lose enough heat to cool to freezing and become ice.
Which soil will allow more water sandy soil or clayey soil why?
sandy soil will allow more water because it is more porous than the clayey soil.
Do you lose more weight when it is hot?
No. A person may seem to lose more weight when it is hot out, but reall he or she is just losing more water weight from sweating. This is not real weight loss and will quickly come back as soon as the individual drinks kore water to stay hydrated.
Why does clayey soil absorb more water than sandy soil?
because sandy soil can absorb water only at a limit
Why clay soil are fertlie than sandy soil?
Clay soils hold more nutrients, while sandy soils quickly have their nutrients leached by rain.
Why is sandy soil acidic?
If one only considers the soil texture, the main driving force for a faster increase in pH in sandy soils is the faster leaching process. Because of the coarse texture of sand, water can easily move through the sandy layers and leach out chemical elements. Naturally, all soils tend to acidify through time if no actions are taken. This proces happens much faster in sandy soils. pH increasing elements such as carbonate (from the weathering of calcium carbonate, very abundant in soils) leach out very quickly. Also the organic decomposition rate is much higher when water is moving faster trhough the soil. This decomposition acidifies the soil as well. Looking at the texture only, a sandy soil is more acidic, just because it is in a further state of weathering, compared to other textures such as clay.
What gains and loses heat much more quickly than?
There are a great many things that gain and lose heat. Metals for example gain and lose heat much more quickly than gasses.
Wet or dry organism lose heat quickly?
If organisms are wet they may tend to lose heat more quickly. The dry organism is more likely to such up the heat and maintain the heat within the organism.
Why is sandy soil more ideal to put under a cement slab than clay soil?
sandy soil drains water
