Question

____ soil has a high clay content and is very durable and strong. fissured cohesive granular all of the above

Explanation:

To determine the correct answer, we analyze the properties of each soil type:

• Fissured soil: Typically has cracks and may not be characterized by high clay content for strength/durability.
• Granular soil: Composed of particles (like sand) and has low clay content, so it's not cohesive or strong due to clay.
• Cohesive soil: Contains significant clay, which gives it cohesion, durability, and strength.
• "All of the above" is incorrect as fissured and granular don't fit the description. So the soil with high clay, durability, and strength is cohesive.

Answer:

B. Cohesive
