Percolation- seepage of water, sand, granular voids in soil

Water retention- water holding capacity, betonite, clay

Explanation:

Percolation is the process of seepage of water through the tiny pores of a bulk mass. Usually the term is used to denote the water draining capacity of a soil. Percolation in the granular sand is high and through the granite is highest among the lithosphere-content.

Water retention is the property of holding of water in the bulk of mass usually used for the soil. The bentonite content in the soil is directly responsible for the water holding capacity of the soil. Clay is one such example with good water holding capacity.
