Nuclear Energy
This nuclear disaster dramatically shifted global public perception of nuclear energy.
Chernobyl
Jenner observed that milkmaids exposed to this disease did not contract smallpox.
Cowpox
The Wright Brothers solved these major challenges before achieving powered flight.
This Australian organisation regulates medications, vaccines and blood products.
TGA
This drone is used to scare cockatoos away from crops
Peregrine falcon drone
This human mistake during a shutdown test triggered the meltdown.
Incorrect test procedure during testing
Jenner inoculated a young boy using material taken from this infection.
Cowpox lesions
They built this device to test wing shapes and improve lift and drag.
Wind tunnel
Frances Kelsey prevented a national disaster by rejecting this drug for US use.
Thalidomide
Every dollar spent on space research returns approximately this amount to society.
a) $1
b) $2
c) $4
d) $8
$8
Before the disaster, nuclear energy was mainly viewed as this type of fuel source.
A clean alternative to fossil fuels
Early society rejected Jenner’s findings due to rumours and this major barrier.
Ignorance / inability to understand the science
One major positive of flight is the ability to rapidly expand this global activity.
Trade
Bioprospecting involves identifying these in living organisms.
Active and beneficial ingredients
Poverty in Australia is strongly influenced by which factors?
Location, education and household condition
After the event, public opinion of nuclear energy became dominated by these emotions.
Fear and distrust
Jenner’s work eventually led to the eradication of this deadly disease.
Smallpox
A major social negative of damming rivers is the forced relocation of these groups.
Local communities
Biopiracy occurs when traditional knowledge is used without this.
Traditional owners consent
These machine have recently been used to monitor crops and herds
Drones
Despite early fear, modern discussions now reconsider nuclear energy due to this global issue.
Climate change / need for low‑carbon energy
By modern standards, Jenner’s research would be rejected due to lacking this essential requirement.
Ethical approval / informed consent
Hydropower from dams contributes to this major economic and low carbon benefit.
Renewable energy generation
FSANZ regulates foods that have undergone this type of modification.
Genetic modification (GM foods)
NASA’s budget represents roughly this percentage of the US annual budget.
a - 0.5%
b - 2%
c - 5%
d - 7%
