True

More information :-

• Smaller the particle size higher is the water holding capacity. - Clay soil having small particles has large surface area & thus retains more water. - On the other hand, sandy soil having larger particle size have very low capacity for holding water.

Answer 2

True statement

The larger the surface area the easier it is for the soil to hold onto water so it has a higher water holding capacity. Sand in contrast has large particle sizes which results in smaller surface area. The water holding capacity for sand is low.
