Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Example - What 3-letter word meaning 'creative activity' can be found in DARTER? The answer here would be 'art', as it can be found in the middle of dARTer. There is no need to rearrange the letters to find the correct word, but look out for some answers being spread between two words. Good luck! Which 3-letter word meaning 'close to the ground' can be found in the colourful CLOWNFISH?

Answer: Low

Clownfish are very brightly coloured - mainly orange with a few white stripes. In the ocean, clownfish live with other sea creatures called anemones. The anemones are poisonous to other fish so they make a good place for the clownfish to hide. You may have seen some clownfish in the 2003 Pixar film 'Finding Nemo', in which both Nemo and his dad Marlin are clownfish.
2. What 3-letter word meaning 'a mode of transport' can be found inside the COMMON CARP?

Answer: Car

The common carp is a freshwater fish, meaning that it lives in rivers and lakes and not in the open sea (where the water is much saltier). Despite their name, common carp are classified as 'vulnerable to extinction' by International Union for Conservation of Nature.

However, not everybody is sad about this as they are often considered an invasive species that can damage populations of other fish.
3. What 3-letter word meaning 'a type of fruit' can be found in the SIAMESE FIGHTING FISH?

Answer: Fig

Siamese fighting fish got their name for a very simple reason - they always fight! Two males placed in the same tank will almost always fight one another for the territory. This means that if you want to keep a Siamese fighting fish as a pet, you should make sure to only have one in a single tank.
4. What 3-letter word meaning 'to throw something very far' can be found in the funny-looking BLOBFISH?

Answer: Lob

Blobfish are not the most attractive fish in the world, though they probably know that given the name that humans have given them. Rarely seen, blobfish live in deep water, especially around mainland Australia and the nearby island state of Tasmania.
5. What 3-letter word meaning 'the opposite of young' can be found in your pet GOLDFISH?

Answer: Old

Goldfish are one of the most popular types of fish to keep as pets, probably because of their brightly coloured scales. Goldfish were originally bred in East Asia, and there are now many different species that are commercially available. If you keep goldfish as pets, make sure not to leave them in the dark as they lose their golden colour.
6. What 5-letter word meaning 'beneath' can be found in the humble FLOUNDER?

Answer: Under

The flounder is a type of flatfish that like to spend their time near the ocean floor. They can use the colouring of the sea floor to hide themselves and then catch their dinner by surprise. Despite having the name Flounder, Ariel's friend from 'The Little Mermaid' is actually not a flounder, but is instead a type of tropical fish. Real flounders are a lot flatter than Flounder!
7. What 3-letter word meaning 'friend' can be found in OPALEYE?

Answer: Pal

The opaleye, also known as the rudderfish, is actually an ocean-dwelling species of a family of fish called chubs. They are found in the Pacific Ocean, particularly near the coast of California. Opaleye are very popular with anglers, meaning that people like to catch them for sport.
8. What 3-letter word meaning 'a short sleep' can be found in the RED SNAPPER?

Answer: Nap

Perhaps unsurprisingly, red snappers have a distinctive red set of scales. They are predators, and will eat almost anything from small fish to crustaceans. Red snappers are a popular food fish, and are used in many East Asian dishes such as the Vietnamese canh chua.
9. What 4-letter word meaning 'an animal eaten by another animal' can be found in the eel-like LAMPREY?

Answer: Prey

While they may look like eels (as they are long and thin), lampreys are actually a completely different type of fish. They do not have a jaw, meaning that their mouth is just a hole with teeth through which they can filter out what they want. While many people imagine them to be small, lampreys can grow up to a metre in length.
10. What 4-letter word meaning 'an impression in a surface' can be found in the GOLDEN TROUT?

Answer: Dent

Golden trout are considered a subspecies of the equally colourful rainbow trout. They are relatively small fish, that rarely exceed more than 30 cm in length. While they are the state fish of California, golden trout are not hugely abundant, and were considered 'critically imperiled' in 2013.
