Try your hand at these brain-busting trivia questions. Remember, please, that you may not google or use any reference sources for the first 24 hours of this thread.
-1. What does the mole unit measure? -2. What family originally owns Wuthering Heights? -3. Which ancient Greek is known as The Father of Numbers? -4. How do White-handed gibbons in Thailand's forests communicate threats from predators? -5. Who was the son of Laius and Jocasta? -6. What did Momofuku Ando invent? -7. Who was the first U.S. President to be inaugurated in Washington DC? -8. In what special way do male sea horses, sea dragons, and pipe fish contribute to the continuation of their species? -9. If Lisa Gherardini was Leonardo's model for the Mona Lisa, then were is Mona Lisa buried? -10. What do prokaryotes lack?
The moon is actually more useful than the sun since the moon gives us light at night when it's dark. The sun only gives us light during the day when it's already bright out.
