- Bird bones have air pockets to reduce their weight—this also gives them an average density significantly less than that of the bones of other animals. Suppose an ornithologist weighs a bird bone air and in water and finds its mass is 45.0 g ad its apparent mass when submerged is 3.60 g (assume the bone is watertight.)(a) What mass of is displaced? (b) What is the volume of the bone?
