    Solution:

    The above statement is false.
    The amount of water the soil can hold when a specific volume of water is poured into it is referred to as its absorption capacity. Varied types of soils have different levels of this absorption ability. The texture of the soil and organic matter are the main factors that affect its ability to hold water. Compared to soils with larger sand particles, soils with smaller particles such as silt and clay have a larger surface area, and soil with a larger surface area may hold more water.
    The corrected statement would be, “The absorption capacity of soil does not vary for different types of soils”.
