Answer:
1)Sandy soil is quite loose, so the percolation rate of water is highest in sandy soil. 2) Clayey soil is very compact. So, the percolation rate of water is lowest in the clayey soil. The sandy soil (having the highest percolation rate) allows the rainwater to reach a well faster and in greater amount.
