Detailed Solution

The property of wood that makes it suitable for the construction of a boat is floatation.
The materials which are lighter than water float on the surface of the water and are called floating materials. For example – paper and dry leaves. The materials which are heavier than water sink to the bottom and are called sinking materials. For example – stones. Wood is lighter than water, and therefore, it floats on water. The floatation ability of wood makes it suitable for boat construction and helps in transportation in rivers, streams, etc.
