Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Which planet is closest to our sun?

Answer: Mercury

Mercury is shrinking! It has been shrinking for millions of years because its inner part is cooling, causing its outer part (surface) to get smaller.
Mercury is also the fastest planet. It travels around the sun (orbits) every 88 days. How old would you be if you got a year older every 88 days?
2. Which is the largest ocean on Earth?

Answer: Pacific Ocean

The Pacific is the largest ocean by far. It's also the deepest. The Pacific Ocean covers almost one-third of the Earth's surface.
3. Which punctuation mark ends an interrogative sentence?

Answer: Question mark

An interrogative sentence is a question. When the police "interrogate" someone they are asking questions.
4. What was the name of the kingly lion in "The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe"?

Answer: Aslan

"The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe" is the first of the seven "Chronicles of Narnia"by CS Lewis to be published. It's about the adventures of four brothers and sisters - Peter, Edmund, Lucy and Susan - and the characters they meet in Narnia. These include the White Witch, Asian the great lion, Mr. Timnus and many others.
5. Which country did Catherine the Great rule?

SpongeBob SquarePants works in a diner called the Krusty Krab. Some of his friends are Sandy Cheeks, Patrick Star, and Squidward.
7. Who is credited with writing the American Declaration of Independence?

Answer: Thomas Jefferson

During the 2nd Continental Congress in the summer of 1776 a committee was formed that Mr. Jefferson, Dr. Franklin, and Mr. Adams were a part of. They chose Mr. Jefferson to write the declaration because he was the best writer on the committee.
8. Who painted the "Mona Lisa"?

Answer: Leonardo da Vinci

The original painting by da Vinci has been hanging in The Louvre in Paris, France since 1804.
When you look at the painting today, you'll notice something strange; Mona Lisa has no eyebrows. She did originally of course, but they've worn off over time.
Was Mona Lisa a real person, or just a figment of Leonardo's very fertile imagination? There are many theories, but no one really knows for sure.
9. What are words that sound alike but have different meanings called?

Answer: Homonyms

Homonyms are further divided into words that sound alike, are spelled alike, but have different meanings (homographs), e.g.: bat and bat, palm and palm, ring and ring and words that sound alike but are spelled differently and have different meanings (homophones), e.g.: weak and week, sun and son, meet and meat,
10. Which of the animals listed below has the longest tongue?

Answer: Giant Anteater

Giant Anteaters are found in Latin America and can stick their tongues out as far as 2 feet. Their tongues are sticky which helps them grab ants and termites. These animals can eat as many as 30,000 insects a day. They are listed at Guinness World Records as the land animal with the longest tongue, but giraffes' tongues are also pretty impressive, up to about 1 1/2 feet.
