Every field has its own set of abbreviations. They help keep space to a minimum. For example, a baseball coach uses P, C, 1B, 2B, SS, etc. for the various team positions. For each group below, identify each member and the group to which they all belong.

1. BOT, MET, ZOO, PHY, CHE, ES, GEO, OCE
-2. VEN, CAM, SEQ, AVA, TUN, COR, TAC
-3. TMP, TWOK, TSFS, TVH, TFF, TUC, GEN
4. HHC, TIO, DIP, OW, B2B, DAP, SWH
5. OHP, TUT, FSQ, BB, WG, IBP, ROM
6. OGP, DDO, SMS, RPM, AU, MS
-7. XOM, BAC, AAPL, PFE, GE, NOK, C
-8. TVM, CYA, WIIFM, FOFL, BBL, OIC, BTW
9. YON, CC, LC, MB, HDC, CO, WS, RT
10. CGI, EXT, POV, MOS, OS, BG, VO, SFX


If you spell the words "absolutely nothing" backwards, you get "Gnihton yletulosba",
which ironically means absolutely nothing.

Sometimes lost is where you need to be. Just because you don't know your direction doesn't mean you don't have one.
