make them good for their uses is that they
are red (because they contain
"anthocyanins”) , they are edible,
malleable, rough, irregular, soft and they
float. They have almost no relative
strength. The percentage of water that is in
a strawberry is between 98-99% depending
on the kind of strawberry. H2O molecules
are held together by weak bonds with
N=nitrogen
C=carbon H20=water
nitrogen and carbon atoms in a ratio
H2O:N:C = 400:4:1, making the inside , that
forms the structure of the strawberry,
almost entirely of H2O. The skin of the
strawberry has more carbon atoms and so
it is stronger than the inside of the
strawberry. Wiki.
