Correct choice is (b) Sandy Soil

The best I can explain: The ratio AET/PET is directly proportional to available moisture. Sandy soil has less availability of moisture than the other type of soils like clayey soil, alluvial soil, and black soil. So, this gives that sandy soil has less AET/PET ratio.
