Detailed Solution

Water holding capacity is highest in clay soil.
Clay retains moisture efficiently because of its density. Compared to other soil types, it also tends to be more nutrient-rich. This is because clay soil comprises negatively charged particles, which draw and trap positively charged particles like calcium, potassium, and magnesium.
