Answer 2

The possibility of quicksand condition will be there when the flow of water to soil is upwards.

EXPLANATION:

• Quicksand is a condition of loose soil that cannot hold the weight of the body and the body starts to immerse inside the soil.

• This can happen in areas where the soil particles are fine sand to sandy soil.

• Generally, the sand is able to hold the weight of the body because the friction created by these sand particles holds the weight because it is dry.

• But, when there is presence of water in the soil the friction in the sand particles reduces and it reaches its saturation point, and now if any weight is applied in this area then water tends to move upwards leaving the soil loose which cannot support the body and as result body starts immersing in the soil and the condition is called as quicksand condition.
