Which of the statements below about buoyancy is true? a. the buoyant force only acts on objects in water. b. the buoyant force is always stronger than the force of gravity. c. the buoyant force causes objects to sink more quickly than 9.8 m/s2. d. the buoyant force always pushes objects up towards the surface of the fluid.

A. The buoyant force only acts on objects in water. - The buoyant force can act in ANY liquid, not just water

B. The buoyant force is always stronger than the force of gravity. - This is false.  The buoyant force is dependent on the size of the object and not gravity

C. The buoyant force causes objects to sink more quickly than 9.8 m/s2. - This is false, since the buoyant force ALWAYS acts opposite of gravity.

D. The buoyant force always pushes objects up towards the surface of the fluid. - This is true

Texture and composition are different because they are not the same aspect. texture has to do with feel and so on, where as composition is the chemical makeup which you cant touch like you can texture.
