Cedar wood absorbs water due to its porous structure and the presence of natural oils that can create a pathway for moisture to enter. The wood's cellular composition includes cavities that can trap water, allowing it to maintain a certain level of humidity. Additionally, cedar's hygroscopic nature means it can absorb and release moisture in response to changes in environmental humidity, further contributing to its water absorption properties.

Wood shavings are insoluble in water. They do not dissolve but rather remain as solid particles when mixed with water. This insolubility is due to the complex structure of cellulose and lignin in wood, which do not break down in water. Instead, wood shavings can absorb some moisture but will retain their solid form.
