Question 3 • WCA 4130 Earth and Space Science 1st Quarter 26-27

A landscaper is shopping for landscaping materials. She wants to use materials through which water flows easily.Which two materials should she choose?

Answer
A
clay and gravel
B
gravel and loosely packed soil
C
granite and rocks with cracks
D
rocks with cracks and clay

Explanation

Water flows easily through materials with large, connected spaces between particles. Gravel and loosely packed soil have spaces that let water pass through, so the correct choice is gravel and loosely packed soil. Clay has very tiny spaces and slows water flow, while solid granite also does not let water pass through easily.
