SDC Trivia Game #837 - 09/09/2025

Question 1: What term describes the relationship between two different kinds of organisms when both benefit from the association?

Mutualism is a form of symbiosis where both organisms involved benefit from the relationship. Examples of mutualism include bees pollinating flowers while collecting nectar, and clownfish living among anemone's tentacles, gaining protection from predators while the anemone feeds on the waste produced by the fish.


Question 2: How many seeds are in the average strawberry?

The average strawberry has about 200 tiny seeds dotting its outside. Technically, the strawberry is an aggregate accessory fruit, meaning the fleshy part is derived not from the plant's ovaries but from the receptacle that holds the ovaries.


Question 3: What is the largest internal organ of the human body?

The liver is not only the largest internal organ but also the heaviest. It performs over 500 vital functions, including detoxification, protein synthesis, and the production of digestive chemicals.



Question 4: Where was Shakespeare's theater "The Globe" located?

The Globe was a theater in London associated with William Shakespeare. It was built in 1599 by Shakespeare's playing company, the Lord Chamberlain's Men, on land owned by Thomas Brend and inherited by his son, Nicholas Brend and grandson Sir Matthew Brend, and was destroyed by fire on 29 June 1613.


Question 5: Why is the Mona Lisa so famous?

There are many reasons why the Mona Lisa is so famous, but the three main reasons are the sophisticated composition and use of sfumato (a technique for softening the transition between colours), the subject's enigmatic smile, and the high-profile theft of the painting in 1911.


Question 6: What is the primary function of the amygdala in the human brain?

The amygdala is part of the limbic system and is primarily responsible for the processing of emotions, such as fear and pleasure. It plays a crucial role in how humans and animals assess and respond to environmental threats and challenges.


Question 7: The term "quadratic" is most often associated with which degree of polynomial?

A quadratic equation is a second degree polynomial with three coefficients. It takes the form ax² + bx + c = 0. The graph of a quadratic function is a parabola.



Question 8: How do plants transport water and nutrients?

The xylem and phloem are specialized tissues in plants that transport water, nutrients, and sugars. The xylem carries water and dissolved minerals from the roots to the leaves, while the phloem transports sugars and other organic compounds from the leaves to other parts of the plant.


Question 9: In botany, what does the term 'deciduous' mean?

The term 'deciduous' often refers to trees or shrubs that lose their leaves annually, usually during the fall/autumn season. This process helps these plants conserve water during the colder months.


Question 10: What is the primary mineral found in granite?

Feldspar is the most abundant mineral in Earth's crust, and it forms around 60% of terrestrial rocks. Granite consists mainly of quartz, feldspar, and mica. Quartz comes in second, making up about 20 to 35% of granite's composition.
