    Two plastic bottles with their bottoms cut are pushed into a trough of water as shown in the figure. Why is the level of water in bottle W less than the level of water in bottle 'B?

    A)  Water occupies space in bottle.

    B)  Atmospheric pressure in bottle A is more than that of bottle B.

    C)  Water takes the shape of the container.

    D)  Air occupies space.

    Correct Answer: D
