It's Wrong!
Correct Answer
D. 4 inches
Explanation
Cranberries must bounce at least 4 inches before they are harvested. This is because ripe cranberries have air pockets inside them, which cause them to bounce when they are dropped. By testing the bounce height, farmers can determine if the cranberries are mature and ready for harvest. A bounce of 4 inches ensures that the cranberries have developed fully and are of good quality.
