Biology
This biological process allows plants to convert sunlight into chemical energy.
What is Photosynthesis?
This is the chemical symbol for sodium.
What is Na?
This is the SI unit of electrical current.
What is Ampere?
He revolutionized physics by introducing the concept of spacetime and showed that time and space are not absolute.
Who is Albert Einstein?
This planetary moon has a dense atmosphere and lakes made of liquid methane, and is also the site of a "battle" in a movie that netted over 2 billion dollars in the box office.
What is Titan?
This is the main function of ribosomes in a cell.
What is Protein Synthesis?
This type of bond involves the sharing of electron pairs between atoms.
What is covalent bond?
This quantity is conserved in all elastic collisions but not in inelastic collisions.
What is Kinetic Energy?
This pioneering physicist isolated two radioactive elements and coined the term “radioactivity.”
Who is Marie Curie?
This part of the electromagnetic spectrum is used in remote TV remotes.
What is infrared radiation?
This is a type of feedback mechanism that is involved in maintaining homeostasis through hormone regulation.
What is negative feedback?
This is the oxidation number of sulfur in sulfuric acid (H₂SO₄).
What is +6?
According to Coulomb’s Law, this is what happens to the strength of a force between two charges if the distance is doubled.
What is it becomes one-fourth as strong (inverse square law)?
This Danish physicist proposed a model of the atom with quantized electron orbits, improving on Rutherford’s model.
Who is Niels Bohr?
This chemical element was once used in toothpaste and tonics but is now known to be dangerously radioactive.
What is radium?
This part of the brain controls balance and coordination.
What is Cerebellum?
This theory defines acids as electron pair acceptors and bases as electron pair donors.
What is Lewis acid-base theory?
This is the SI unit of capacitance.
What is farad?
He formulated the laws of planetary motion, showing that planets move in elliptical orbits.
Who is Johannes Kepler?
This is the shape taken by a flame in zero gravity.
What is a sphere?
This enzyme unzips the DNA double helix during replication.
What is DNA helicase?
This property of certain molecules means they exist as non-superimposable mirror images, often resulting in different biological activity despite identical chemical composition.
(hint: it's taught in a Breaking Bad episode)
What is chirality?
This fundamental force, the strongest of the four, binds quarks together inside protons and neutrons.
What is the strong force?
Known for her work on chromosomes, she was the first to capture X-ray diffraction images of DNA.
Who is Rosalind Franklin?
This animal’s milk is pink due to the presence of blood in the secretion process.
What is a hippopotamus?
