If you put a bad apple in a barrel full of good apples what will happen?

Question

1. Will some of the good apples turn bad,

2. Will the bad apple turn good,

3. Will all the apples turn bad,

4. None of the above.

Answer 1

Eventually, many of the good apples will turn bad.

Answer 2

Throw anything bad into a barrel of good and the badness will spread. If you remove the bad then the others won't rot. That is probably true of society as well. So my answer is number 1.

Answer 3

Jak sie masz! My name Borat. If bad apple go inside a barrel of good apple then the bad apple is difficult to find. High five!!!

Answer 4

Given enough time & no outside interference, then #3.

All the apples turn bad.

Eventually all the apples will turn bad anyway even

without tossing in 1 bad one. But doing so, will just

makes all the rest rot  a little bit faster.

Answer 5

Well, it depends if we're talking about real apples or "apples".  In most cases, the bad apple will cause the other apples to go bad.  But sometimes the "bad apple" might see the benefits of becoming a "good apple" and try harder to be "good".   Or the "good apples" may be easily influenced and a few will go "bad".  Or all the other "apples" may just look at him weird and total ignore the "bad apple".

Answer 6

You'll get Apple Cider.

All the good apples will turn bad and then, they can be crushed and distilled to get some lovely Apple Cider.

Answer 7

The over-ripe apple will release a hormone (ethylene) to the other apples, which will cause them to ripen - if they are left alone too long, then they will all over-ripen and turn "bad".  This is why you can get ripe apples in the store year round - apple growers pick them when they are unripe, store them with no contact to ethylene, then when they want to ripen them for the market, they expose them to low doses of ethylene, which causes them to ripen.

So, given enough time, 3, all of the apples will turn bad.

Answer 8

none of the above, just throw the bad apple away! shooooo!!!
