EGG IN BOTTLE | PUNJABI | Fun with Biology

Cut the bottle from the top and fill it half with water. Add enough salt so that a fresh egg just floats in water. Now the egg will have the same density as that of salt water. Now tape the bottle and throw it from a height of six feet. The egg will not break because it was floating in a liquid of same density. Similarly, a baby floats in its mother’s belly and remains safe from shocks.
