The image below shows the same egg in water (on the left) and in seawater (on the right). What must be true about these liquids?

• The seawater is less dense than the plain water.

• The seawater is denser than the plain water.

• The plain water and the seawater have equal densities.

• It is impossible to tell which liquid is denser.

Based on the diagram below, rank the three objects from most dense to least dense.

• X, Y, Z

• Z, Y, X

• Z, X, Y

• Y, Z, X
