About
Zucchini is a summer squash variety that weighs about 5.0 ounces (142 g) per cup when chopped.
With a bulk density of about 37 pounds per cubic foot (0.6 g/mL), chopped zucchini takes up more space than denser produce like carrots or apples. One US cup holds approximately 5.0 ounces (142 g) of pieces, leaving small air pockets between slices. Because it is mostly water and packed loosely, it is noticeably lighter by volume than liquid water, which weighs about 8.3 ounces (237 g) per cup.
From Wikipedia
Zucchini, courgette, or Cucurbita pepo var. cylindrica is a summer squash, a vining herbaceous plant whose fruit are harvested when their immature seeds and epicarp (rind) are still soft and edible. It is closely related, but not identical, to the marrow; its fruit may be called marrow when mature.
