Questions about example sentences with, and the definition and usage of "Ivory"

A: it is both. It does refer to elephant tusk or rhino horn, but it is also used to refer to a shade of white, usually for wedding dresses.

A: "dense" refers to an object with high "density"

"density" refers to how tightly compact or solid an object is. In more technical terms, it is the "mass per unit volume".

"mass" is basically how much an object weighs, and "volume" is basically how much space the object takes up.

So a "high density" object is one that is very heavy but also small in size/volume. A "low density" object is one that is very light but also very large in size/volume. Objects that are solid all the way through tend to be high density. Objects that have a lot of air inside tend to be low density.

"Ivory" is the stuff that elephant tusks are made out of. An object that is "as dense as ivory" is an object that has around the same density as ivory.
