Soil with the greatest porosity has particles that are
C
well sorted and loosely packed
Beaker A and beaker B have the same porosity, and beaker C has the least porosity.
sand, silt, and pebbles, only
porosity of the sediments
porosity
D
greatest in tube A
If tubes A, B, and C were set up to test for capillarity, the data would show that capillarity is

well sorted and loosely packed
Beaker A and beaker B have the same porosity, and beaker C has the least porosity.
sand, silt, and pebbles, only
porosity of the sediments
porosity
D
greatest in tube A

well sorted and loosely packed
Beaker A and beaker B have the same porosity, and beaker C has the least porosity.
sand, silt, and pebbles, only
porosity of the sediments
porosity
D
greatest in tube A
Water was added to each tube to just cover the sediments and the volumes of water added were recorded. These data can best be used to determine the

Beaker A and beaker B have the same porosity, and beaker C has the least porosity.
sand, silt, and pebbles, only
porosity of the sediments
porosity
D
greatest in tube A
The results of the activity should have indicated that approximately equal amounts of water were added to the cups of
