"Uneaten part of an apple" answer
The answer for Tuesday's puzzle is:
CORE
The rest of the ladder at the top of the page stays hidden until you tap a rung, so you can check this word without giving away the others.
Why CORE fits
If you've already solved CARE, change its second letter from A to O. The bottom word, CORK, unlocks once the middle rungs are in order, and it differs from CORE only in the fourth letter, K instead of E.
