Answer:

Salutation

Step-by-step explanation:

This statement would be incorrect see because water would drip through a cup no matter how heavy because its a liquid and with it having no natural shape it can squeeze through the holes of the cup

The given statement is false.

The water will leak through the holes in bottom not because it is heavier than the cup but because for the reason it is a liquid.

Explanation:

The water is a liquid with a standard viscosity, even with lighter viscosity or heavy viscosity, it will eventually leak out of the cup with the hole in the bottom as the liquid holds the shape of the container unlike solid and thus with hole, leaks out.
