d. less matter taking up the same space.

Answer 1

Answer:

C is the correct answer.

Answer 2

The green ball has more matter taking up the same space.

• We know that, Density = Mass/Volume
• Here, the size of the two balls are same. Which means, the volume of the two balls are same.
• But, the green ball has greater density than the white ball.
• This implies, that the green ball has greater mass than the white mall.
• Mass = Amount of matter.
• Green ball has greater amount of mass or amount of matter.
• Their size or volume is same, so they will be taking up the same space.
• Final conclusion : Green ball has more matter taking up the same space.
