Clay soil changes based on whether it is dry or wet. The soil swells up when wet and shrinks and becomes hard when dry. Based on this information, does clay soil support plant growth well?
Yes, because soil gets bigger when wet and allows room for plants to grow.
Yes, because clay gives a sturdy ground for plants to root in when dry.
No, because plants need larger pieces of soil in order to hold enough water.
No, because clay does not drain well and is too tight for growth when dry.
