Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. It is not possible to get a tan or sunburn on a cloudy day.

Answer: False

It is possible to get a tan even on cloudy days because 80 percent of the sun's rays still penetrate.

2. Boys are born with more fat cells than girls.

Answer: False

Girls are born with more fat cells than boys.

3. By volume, a woman's brain is bigger than a man's brain.

Answer: False

A man's brain is biologically bigger than a woman's but that doesn't mean men are smarter than women.

4. Pig heart valves cannot be used as replacements for human ones.

Answer: False

Amazing but true. Pig heart valves can be used as replacements for a human heart because a pig's cells closely resemble those of humans.

5. Too much oxygen is harmless.

Answer: False

Too much oxygen is poisonous. Continuous breathing of 100 pecent oxygen for an extended period of time can cause an accumulation of fluid in the lungs, convulsions and even blindness.

Nails and hairs are actually dead. And besides, something that is already dead cannot continue to exist.

A woman's skin ages faster than a man's because a woman's skin is much thinner.
