Susceptibility to wind & water erosion is highest for

A. Sand

B. Silt

C. Clay

D. All of the above

Answer: Option B

Solution (By Examveda Team)

Susceptibility to wind and water erosion is highest for Silt. As the size of silt is neither larger than sand nor it is tiny like clay, therefore silt-sized soil particles are washed away by water and blown away by the wind very easily in comparison to clay and sand.
