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.
