SDC Trivia Game #865 - 07/10/2025

Question 1: Which plant is the primary source of chocolate?

The cacao tree, native to Central and South America, produces pods containing seeds that are processed to make chocolate. The scientific name of the cacao tree is Theobroma cacao, which means "food of the gods" in Greek.


Question 2: If an animal is viviparous, what does that mean?

Viviparous animals, such as mammals, give birth to live offspring that develop inside the mother's body, as opposed to oviparous animals which lay eggs that hatch outside the mother's body.


Question 3: Who founded the Ford Motor Company?

The Ford Motor Company was incorporated on June 16, 1903, by Henry Ford and a group of investors. Ford is known for revolutionizing the automotive industry by introducing methods for large-scale manufacturing of cars, especially with the assembly line technique.



Question 4: What is the name of Zeus' wife in Greek mythology?

In Greek mythology, Hera is the goddess of marriage and family, and the wife of Zeus, the king of the gods. She is known for her jealousy and vengeful nature, often punishing Zeus' lovers and their children.


Question 5: What term describes a community of organisms and their physical environment interacting as an ecological unit?

An ecosystem includes all of the living things (plants, animals, and organisms) in a given area, interacting with each other, and also with their non-living environments (weather, earth, sun, soil, climate, atmosphere). Ecosystems can be of any size, but usually they are in particular places. Each ecosystem has its own balance and is considered a functional unit in ecology.


Question 6: In theatre, what does "upstaging" refer to?

"Upstaging" is when an actor draws attention away from the main action or speaker on stage, typically by moving upstage (towards the back of the stage). This can be done intentionally or unintentionally, but it's generally considered poor stage etiquette.


Question 7: Which Australian bank is among the largest banks in the world by total assets?

Commonwealth Bank of Australia, founded in 1911 as a government bank, is currently the largest Australian bank with total assets over AU$1 trillion and is among the world's largest banks.



Question 8: How many novels did Jane Austen complete in her lifetime?

Jane Austen completed six major novels: "Sense and Sensibility," "Pride and Prejudice," "Mansfield Park," "Emma," "Northanger Abbey," and "Persuasion." Her works are considered literary classics and are known for their wit, social observation, and insights into women's lives in early 19th century England. "Northanger Abbey" and "Persuasion" were published posthumously.


Question 9: In which country was the first potato planted in Europe?

The first potato was planted in Europe in Spain after the Spanish Conquistadors brought it back from their South American expeditions in the early 16th century. Although Ireland is often historically associated with potatoes due to the widespread dependency on the crop leading up to the Great Famine, the potato actually arrived in Ireland several decades after its introduction to Spain.


Question 10: Where is the fictional nation of Wakanda located?

Wakanda is a fictional East African nation in the Marvel Comics universe, known for being exceptionally advanced and the sole source of the metal vibranium. It's famously the homeland of the superhero Black Panther.
