What is more porous A. a bowl filled with cherries B. a bowl filled with blueberries C. a bowl filled with apples D. a bowl filled with grapes?
C. A bowl filled with apples is the more porous of the four. Porosity is a function of the size of the fruit. The larger the fruit, the more porous the bowl will be (the more air or water that can be placed in the bowl). The smaller the fruit, the less porous the bowl will be. Compare with a bowl of stones and a bowl of sand. The stones are more porous because the sand can be more densely compacted, leaving very little room for water.
