How is a Grade AA egg distinguished in terms of air cell size?

  1. Air cell less than 1/8"

  2. Air cell 1/8" to 3/16"

  3. Air cell 3/16" to 1/4"

  4. Air cell larger than 1/4"

The correct answer is: Air cell less than 1/8"

A Grade AA egg is distinguished by having an air cell that measures less than 1/8 inch in depth. This measurement indicates the freshness of the egg; a smaller air cell suggests that the egg is newer. As eggs age, moisture and air seep in, enlarging the air cell, which is one of the key factors evaluated in grading eggs. An air cell less than 1/8 inch is indicative of high quality and freshness, which is characteristic of Grade AA eggs, making this the correct choice in identifying the air cell size for this grade.
