Answer:
The amount of sand, silt and clay present in the soil determines the soil texture. In coarse textured soils: sand is predominant (sandy soils). In medium textured soils: silt is predominant (loamy soils).
Extra Info:
When soil scientists want to precisely determine soil type, they measure the percentage of sand, silt, and clay. They plot this information on a triangular diagram, with each size particle at one corner (figure 2). The soil type can then be determined from the location on the diagram.
