Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Monday 8.00 LATIN "To run" is called "currere", but what do you say if you want to tell a person to run?

Answer: Curre!

Curro means "I run", currunt means "they run" and "Currite!" is what you say if you want to tell more than one person to run.

2. Monday 14.25 BIOLOGY EXPERIMENT We were checking our blood groups. This was done by taking one drop of antibodies against A, one drop of antibodies against B, and one drop of antibodies against Rh, and then put drops of our own blood into each antibody pool. My blood was only clogging in the Rh drop. Which blood group do I have?

Answer: O positive

The antibodies start clogging your blood if your blood has a corresponding antigen. It is the antigen that decides the blood group. A person with antigen A on his/her red blood cells has blood group A. A person with antigen B has blood group B and a person with antigens A and B has blood group AB. Since I have blood group O, I have no antigens at all, and therefore my blood didn't react with the antibodies against A or B.

But since my blood was clogging with antibodies against Rh, I must have Rh factors in my blood and therefore I am Rh positive.

A person with Rh negative hasn't any Rh antigens.

3. Tuesday 8.00 SWEDISH We did oral book reports and one guy in my class had read "Grottbj�rnens folk", whose original title is "The Clan of the Cave Bear". It is written by Jean M Auel. What kind of people is this book about?

Answer: Neanderthals

This is the first in a series of books.

4. Tuesday 9.10 MATH This day we had a math test. One of the questions was: "Find one antiderivative to f(x)= x^3 + 5x." What is the answer? (^ = "to the power..." and / = "divided by...")

Answer: x^4/4 + 5x^2/2

You use this when you work with integrals.

5. Wednesday 12.50 HISTORY In 1720, the four Nordic countries Sweden, Norway, Denmark and Finland were in some way united. How?

Answer: Sweden and Finland united, Norway and Denmark united

Sweden and Finland were united until 1809. Sweden was also united with Norway between 1814 and 1905.

6. Wednesday 14.00 ENGLISH We read an extract from the book "Moll Flanders". Who wrote this book?

Answer: Daniel Defoe

This book was first published in 1722. Defoe is most known for his book about Robinson Crusoe, from 1719.

7. Thursday 9.10 PHYSICS A capacitor can be used as a ___________ .

Answer: reserve battery

To be honest, I didn't understand much of this class, but you can "store" electricity in a capacitor, since it will form one positive charge and one negative charge, that can give electricity later.

8. Thursday 10.20 SWEDISH More book reports! This day, I did my book presentation. I had read Vilhelm Moberg's series about a family who emigrates to America in 1850. This series is translated into English and is called "The Emigrants". In which state does this family settle?

Answer: Minnesota

Many Swedes who emigrated settled in Minnesota. There were whole societies of Swedes who lived together and had Swedish schools and Swedish churches.

9. Friday 10.30 BIOLOGY Biology test! In one of the questions, we had a picture of an artery and a vein, and we had to say which one was the artery. How would you know that?

Answer: Arteries are smaller than veins and have thicker walls

Arteries have thick, expandable walls, so that they are able to transport the large amounts of blood the heart pumps out and still hold the blood pressure steady.

10. Friday 12.40 HISTORY I am writing an essay about a Swedish king who lived between 1682 and 1718. He was killed in Norway in November 1718, and no one knows if the enemy or one of his own shot him. His father was Karl XI. Voltaire has written a famous book about him. Who is he?

Answer: Karl XII

This is one of the most famous murder cases in Swedish history. There are many theories about his death, but no one knows for sure what happened. Voltaire's book about him is called "Historie de Charles XII, roi de Su�de".
