Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Which character is seen in an amber mine at the beginning of the movie?

Answer: Donald Gennaro

Gennaro is the lawyer John Hammond hires for the park. John Hammond wants to prove to his investors that the park is safe by having it inspected by experts and lawyers. Gennaro is his lawyer, and he also invites Dr. Alan Grant, a paleontologist (studies dinosaurs/extinct species), Dr. Ellie Sattler, a paleobotanist (studies ancient plants), and Dr. Ian Malcolm, a chaotician (scientist studying an area of mathematics dealing with unpredictable events). Mr. Gennaro is later eaten by the T-rex.
2. Who does Dennis Nedry meet at the cafe?

Answer: Lew Dodgson

Dodgson says "Don't use my name." Nedry replies "Dodgson! We got Dodgson here! See? Nobody cares." Dodgson hires Nedry, a programmer for the park, to smuggle some of the dinosaur embryos back to him.
3. What brand is the shaving cream container Nedry uses to smuggle the frozen embryos?

Answer: Barbasol

He never gets the embryos back to Dodgson. Later he is killed by a dilophosaurus when the hurricane hits the island. He gets lost on his way to the dock.
4. Complete this quote: Grant: "This is a velociraptor." Kid: "That doesn't look very scary. More like a 6 foot ____________."

Answer: turkey

This scene takes place at the beginning of the movie at Dr. Grant's and Dr. Sattler's dig site. They are excavating velociraptor bones as tourists watch and this obnoxious kid interrupts. Dr. Grant doesn't like kids, but as the movie progresses, he begins to warm up to Hammond's grandkids, Lex and Tim Murphy.
5. What does the chef at the park serve for lunch the first day?

Answer: Bass

It is actually Chilean Sea Bass. Hammond mentions this as the scientists are watching the velociraptors kill and eat a cow. After the gruesome scene, Hammond walks up to the observation deck and asks "Who's hungry?"
6. What animal is used to lure the T-rex into view?

Answer: A goat

At two different points in the film, livestock are used to feed or lure the apparently elusive dinosaurs into viewing range of the tourists. In this scene, a goat is raised into the T-rex exhibit and Lex Murphy's disgusted reaction reveals her sympathy for animals.
Lex: "He's gonna eat the goat?"
Tim: "Excellent!"
Gennaro: "What's the matter, kid? You never had lamb chops?"
Lex: "I happen to be a vegetarian."
This is right before the park's power goes out. The lights go out as the sky gets dark due to the approaching hurricane. Tim finds some night vision goggles and looks back into the exhibit. The goat is gone, but soon its severed leg falls on the car, heralding the arrival of the movie's best monster - the T-rex!
7. What plant is Ellie worried that the triceratops has been eating?

Answer: West Indian Lilac

This is an important scene because this is the first time the characters get to see any of the animals up close. This is also one of the many scenes where Dr. Malcolm's (played by Jeff Goldblum) funny yet unbelieveably cynical personality is showcased. Throughout the movie, he points out, with dry humor, the faults and errors in the way the park has been thoughtlessly made. Although for much of the movie he and the others on the island are facing death, he can still muster the ever-hilarious "I told you so."
Ellie Sattler: "These are West Indian Lilacs. This is toxic."
Zoo Veterinarian Dr. Harding: "We know, but the animals don't eat them."
Ellie Sattler: "You sure?"
Harding: "Pretty sure."
Ellie Sattler: "There's only one way to find out. I'd have to see the animal's droppings."
Ian Malcolm: "I'm sorry, did you say dino droppings? Droppings?"
(They walk up to the dung.)
It becomes obvious at this point that Malcolm is impressed by the size of the pile and says so quite graphically.
8. Which member of the park staff is eaten by the velociraptor in the opening scene?

Answer: The Gatekeeper

The Game Warden of the park, Robert Muldoon, has hated the velociraptors since this incident. He later shares his thoughts about them and declares "They should all be destroyed."
9. After Dr. Grant, Dr. Sattler, and Dr. Malcolm arrive on the island, which is the first dinosaur seen in the movie?

Answer: Brachiosaurus

This is one of the most dramatic scenes in the movie. This movie, for the most part unlike its sequels, instills a sense of beauty in the audience before the situation quickly falls apart and the action begins. In addition to being a fantastic scene in the movie, it also is a piece of cinema history as it is the first display of Jurassic Park's massive breakthroughs in computer-generated imagery.
10. What type of DNA, used to fill in gaps on the dinosaur DNA sequence, allows the dinosaurs to breed in the wild?

Answer: Frog

Some types of West African frogs can actually change their sex in a single-gender environment. The genes used to engineer the dinosaurs in Jurassic Park allow the dinosaurs to breed even though they were originally all female. Dr. Grant realizes this when he finds a velociraptor nest in the park.
