Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. What disease is characterized by the development of Tophi?

Answer: Gout

Tophi are lumpy, chalky, subdural urate deposits that can be quite painful. If your joints are swelling, you may be suffering from this nasty disease (gout). Better see a doctor!

2. If you suffer from podobromohydrosis which part of your body should you think about cleaning?

Answer: feet

The word 'podobromohydrosis' (often just called bromohydrosis) literally translates as 'smelly foot sweat', which isn't the most appealing thing. So keep those feet clean!

3. Which of the following would most aptly describe scansorial limbs on animals?

Answer: Specialized for climbing

From the Latin "scandere", it means 'to climb'. Naturally then, a scansorial limb would be used for climbing purposes! Can you think of an example of a scansorial limb? Monkeys and squirrels live scansorial lifestyles...

4. Who was the partner of Ebenezer Scrooge in the Dickens' classic "A Christmas Carol"?

Answer: Marley

Jacob Marley dies seven long years prior to the occurrences in this Charles Dickens' Christmas book. His ghost is the first to appear to Mr. Scrooge, on his doorknocker and later in his parlor room. He warns Scrooge of three ghosts who will soon pay him a frightful visit.

5. What does CWT stand for in terms of weights and measures?

Answer: hundred weight

Strange as it may seem, CWT stands for 'hundred weight'. It may not seem so strange when you consider that the Latin for 100 is 'centi-'!
