Analyze each statement (A and B) whether they are true or false. Use the choices below in answering each item; A statement A is true B statement B is true C both A and B are true D neither A nor B are true (A) As the soil becomes compacted, both bulk density and particle density increase. (B) Porosity is inversely proportional to bulk density, meaning as bulk density increases percent porosity decreases, and vice versa.
