B. The table below shows the mineralogical properties of three types of soils (A, B, and C). Soils A and B developed from an igneous rock while the parent material of soil C is a metamorphic rock. All three soils developed under the same climatic, topographic, and biotic conditions.

A core sampler having diameter 4 cm and length 15 cm was 3 points used to collect samples from two different fields. The soil from field A had oven dry weight 310 g whereas the soil from field B had oven dry weight 180 g. Calculate porosity of both soils and explain which field is experiencing more aeration? Note: Show your calculations.
