Question 4: In which organ of the human body is bile produced?

The liver is responsible for producing bile, a fluid that helps in the digestion of fats. The gallbladder stores and concentrates the bile produced by the liver before releasing it into the small intestine when needed.


Question 5: What is the most widely produced type of poultry in the world?

Question 6: If I were a bell, what song from which Broadway musical would I be from?

"If I Were a Bell" is a song from the musical "Guys and Dolls," which first premiered on Broadway in 1950. The musical, with music and lyrics by Frank Loesser, is based on the short stories of Damon Runyon and features characters from the New York underworld.


Question 7: Who played the character of Jack Dawson in the movie Titanic?

Question 8: Why was the Berlin Wall erected in 1961?

Question 9: Which plant species is known for having the largest single flower in the world?

Rafflesia arnoldii, often called the "corpse flower" due to its strong odor of decaying flesh, produces flowers up to one meter in diameter. Despite Titan arum being often cited due to its large flower-like structure, it is technically an inflorescence – not a single flower.


Question 10: Where was the oldest known human settlement, Çatalhöyük, discovered?
