The development of soil structure from single grained or massive states conditions:

Correct answer: B. Both (a) & (b)

  • A. Single grained: Where each soil particles function as an individual e.g. Sandy soil
  • B. Both (a) & (b)
  • C. Massive: Clay fills the spaces and pores so that the soil becomes dense and forms clods
  • D. None of these

Explanation

Single-grained soil has separate particles, typical of sand, while massive soil has particles packed together without clear structural aggregates. These are contrasting initial soil structural conditions, so both descriptions apply.
