The answer is A because the boat is being spread out which increases the total amount of space, or volume. The density is decreasing because the same amount of clay is being spread out over a wider surface. (Density is mass/volume and the mass is still the same but the volume has become smaller so that means that the density is also smaller)

Increased surface area so it was easier to float

Study the diagram below. In which order does oxygen flow through the human circulatory system?
anyanavicka [17]
The order of flow of oxygen within the human body may be described simply. Oxygen first is inhaled through the nasal cavity and then passes through the trachea, through the bronchi and into the lungs. In the lungs, the oxygen is passed into the blood stream through the alveoli and then is carried to the heart. The heart pumps this oxygenated blood throughout the body, primarily to organs and muscle cells, where it is consumed in respiration and is converted to carbon dioxide and excreted.
