Why liquid limit exists only in clay soils?

It just because all the index property of soil is for cohesive soils. So from above four option only clay is cohesive. That's why only clay is correct answer.

Clay soil is correct. I agree.

Because exist liquid state the soils are more liquid. And then saturated position so clay is the correct answer.

Yes, clay is the right answer.

It just because that all index properties are valid for fine-grained soil.

If liquid limit could be found clearly then density index of fine-grained soil should be defined Which is not practically possible.

Atterberg limit is the use for cohesive soil only and clay is cohesive.

If atterberg limits is for fine grained soils. Then why not silty soils?
