    rapid water drainage

    Explanation:

    These are example of granular (sand and gravel) soils. They are more permeable to water, and therefore can not retain water molecules. They are non-cohesive soil, with high strength and capacity to withstand slope.

    High acidity is not a characteristic feature of soil with sand and gravel. In addition, such soil lacks biomass therefore can not support plant growth. The soil type is not a yardstick to determine the dept of soil type. Consequently, rapid water loss due to porosity is the best option.
