Why would an orange float in water?
When the skin is intact on an orange, it will allow it to float because the rind has is filled with tiny pockets of air an is porous. If the peel is taken off, the orange will sink because it become dense.
Why cork floats in water?
Any object placed in water will be pulled down into the liquid by gravity. But an object less dense than water will only be pulled down until the object displaces an amount of water equal to its own mass. Then it will float. The water will be pushing up equal to the force of gravity pulling down - an equilibrium. Any object that weighs less than its own volume of water will float. It's lower overall density will result in buoyancy.
Why does a lemon seed rise and fall in a glass of sparkling water and not in still water?
In sparkling (carbonated) water, tiny bubbles of carbon dioxide can cling to a lemon seed (or anything else in the water) and when they do so, they make the seed more buoyant. The bubbles can also float away from the seed, leaving it in a less buoyant state. As a result, the seed can rise and fall.
What are microscopic organisms that float in the water?
Microscopic organisms that float in water include phytoplankton (such as algae and diatoms), zooplankton (such as tiny crustaceans and larvae), and bacteria. These organisms play crucial roles in the aquatic food chain and ecosystem health.
Is coral a tiny plant?

Which igneous rock has tiny air bubbles trapped inside which allow it to float in water?
Pumice has tiny air pockets to help it float in water.
What is a tropical ocean community made by tiny animals that have algae growing in their tissues?

What do creek clams eat?
Creek clams eat small plants, algae and tiny animals. They filter the food from the water. Clams are a good addition in a fish tank as they can filter the tank's water.
Will iron pyrite float?
No, a lump of iron pyrite will sink in water.
What is the home of plankton in a coral reef?
Most species classified as zooplankton (tiny animals) live in the water column or in the porous rocky substrate of the reef. Phytoplankton (tiny plants and microscopic algae) tend to live only in the water column where light is abundant.
Chalk is a kind of limestone made from the fossils of tiny animals and algae?
sedimentary rocks
What are tiny drifting animals in the ocean?
the name given to tiny sea animals and plant that float in the sea.they form the main food of many sea animal
What adaptations does a water lettuce has to float on water?
tiny hair on the roots and a swollen leaf stalk
Algae and other tiny organisms that live in water are classified as?
Algae and other tiny organisms that live in water are classified as plankton. Plankton are important members of aquatic ecosystems, serving as a food source for larger organisms and playing a role in nutrient cycling.
