An apple sunk in water, looks fine. What could it mean? I washed a dozen of apple just now and one of them sunk in water. Also surprisingly I was not able to find an answer via googling, all top results were about why they float. ![enter image description here]( The smallest one. I don't know the variety name, but AFAIK it is an apple, tastes like an apple. Could a fact that it sunk mean some internal spoilage?

I think that the density of the endocarp is more than the mesocarp, and in that small apple, more amount of endocarp is present than mesocarp, making its average density more than water, thus, making it sink. Vice versa for the bigger apples.
