(b)
Single grained structure is formed by the settlement of coarse grained soils in suspension in water. A flocculent structure is formed by the deposition of line soil fraction (like clay particles)in water. The particles oriented in flocculent structure will have edge to face contact.

Honey comb structure is formed by the disintegration of flocculent structure under superimposed load. The particles oriented in honeycomb structure will have face to face contact.
