    This is what we learned:

  1. Different apples weigh different amounts.
  2. The chopped apples lost the most water.
  3. The whole apple lost the least amount.
  4. Red Delicious apples stayed the juiciest the longest.
  5. Apples have different names.
  6. Apples are different colors.
  7. Apples can get rotten.
  8. Some apples are juicier than others.
  9. Most of the apples lost weight because the water inside evaporated.
