The correct answer is: **The beach ball has more air.**
This option implies that the beach ball is less dense than the bowling ball due to the air it contains. Density, which is mass divided by volume, is the reason why the beach ball is lighter than the bowling ball, despite the bowling ball being made of a denser material.
