From Quiz Threesomes - Part 2

Answer: Zechariah

In Genesis 7:7, it says "So Noah, with his sons, his wife, and his sons' wives, went into the ark, because of the waters of the flood." When Noah and his wife had their sons, Ham, Shem and Japheth, Noah was around 500 years old! His sons would have been around 100 when they boarded the ark. As for the other choice, Zechariah was John the Baptist's father.

From Quiz The Great British Odd One Out Quiz, Part 1

Answer: Northern Ireland

England, Scotland, and Wales collectively make up Great Britain. The nation as a whole is formally "The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland". The name Britain comes from "Britannia", which was applied by the Romans. It was not until the 10th Century that there was a unified England and in 1536 England and Wales were unified in law. Scotland was a separate country until 1707 when it united with England under a common monarch. In the 12th Century, meanwhile, Ireland was separate, until a local king invited Norman lords over to help with an internecine squabble. To borrow from a famous advertising campaign, the Normans liked Ireland so much they took over the entire island. The kingdom of Great Briana and Ireland came about in 1881, but in 1922 the name changed to Great Britain and Northern Ireland when 26 counties of Ireland gained independence.

From Quiz Another Odd One Out

Answer: Émile Zola, author

Emile Zola (1840 - 1902) was born in and died in Paris but he spent a significant part of his childhood in Aix-en-Provence. Several of the novels from his mammoth twenty-novel cycle "Les Rougon-Macquart" were set in Paris, although the font of the saga is a fictional town called Plassans in Provence. I find his gritty, vivid realism of both places remain indelibly imprinted on the memory long after the intricate plots have been forgotten. About the red herrings: Buñuel was a fabulous Spanish-born filmmaker with a sharp eye for the absurd, Brâncuși was a Romanian-born Modernist sculptor, and Chopin was a Polish-born Romantic composer. All three spent time living and working in France. Question supplied by thula2

Answer: Ahipa

The abiu is a fruit that grows in the tropical regions of South America. It tastes like a sopadilla, which has the flavor of caramel custard. The arhat is a fruit used for medicines that is native to China. It is often referred to as one of several "longevity fruits". It has been used for thousands of years as a natural sweetener, and to help with diabetes and obesity. An atemoya is a crossbreed of a sugar apple and a cherimoya. It is native to the American tropics, but is very popular in Taiwan. There, it is sometimes referred to as the pineapple sugar apple (though this is not a correct title for the fruit, as it is crossbred with the cherimoya, instead of the popularly believed pineapple). That leaves the ahipa, which is the vegetable. It grows high in the Bolivian mountains, and is related to the jicima, and has a very similar taste.
