Using salted water (brine) to dip apples in keeps them white by retarding the oxidation of the surface of the fruit. Lemon water (acid based) also does the same thing. Neither will affect the taste of the apples if used in the correct proportions.
By drying apples, or any food item, you reduce the water activity which will help prevent or slow the growth of spoilage microorganisms or pathogens.

Water can slow down the browning of apples by creating a barrier that limits the exposure of the fruit to oxygen, which is necessary for the enzymatic reaction that leads to browning. However, if apples are not kept submerged, they will still be exposed to air, allowing oxidation to occur. Additionally, moisture on the surface may help reduce browning temporarily, but without complete submersion, the apples will eventually brown due to oxygen contact. To minimize browning effectively, it's best to combine water immersion with other methods, such as adding lemon juice or using airtight containers.
If you put lemon juice in the water it will prevent the browning.
Nudity Moving air Submersion in cold water Death
In the short term it is possible but it depends on the type of water,i.e. sea water, or the duration of the submersion.
Land snails cannot survive in water for extended periods of time. While they may be able to survive brief periods of submersion, prolonged exposure to water can lead to drowning and death. It is important to ensure that land snails have access to a moist environment to prevent dehydration, but they should not be submerged in water.
of course, ever bobbed for apples?
No
Water is kept out of apples good for keeping apples fresh to an extent. The spray that they coat them with has to do with moisture and oxygen as well. WHen the apples stay dry they tend not to spoil as fast.
Salt water slows the dehydration (browning of apples) because it is an acid.
Yes, the water content in apples can vary slightly depending on the variety, growing conditions, and ripeness. Generally, apples have a high water content, typically around 86% water.
