Option B, particle sizes, is the right answer.

Soil texture is a distribution apparatus practiced both in the field and lab to prepare soil properties based on their natural texture. Soil texture can be circumscribed adopting qualitative techniques such as texture by touch, and quantitative approaches such as the hydrometer technique. Soil texture concentrates on the particles that are less than two millimeters in broadness which incorporate clay, silt and sand.
