antiaircraft Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 Bonus question: There are three main possibilities (one of which is highly unlikely) about how the universe is shaped. The first possibility is that it curves 'upward', eventually closing in on itself and thus having a finite size, in which case it would be incredibly huge. The second, highly unlikely possibility is the 'Newtonian Universe', which basically is a flat universe following Newtonian physics. The third possibility is that the universe curves 'downward' in which case it would be of infinite size. The most accurate answer to this question is that we don't know. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hubert Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 Generally there was a core of 6-8 "sharers", that split the profits/debts. There was around the same number of minor actors who could play the extra, smaller roles and also a lesser number of boys, apprenticed to the older actors. Some famous members of the Lord Chamberlain's Men were: William Shakespeare, William Kempe, George Bryan, Henry Condell and John Heminges. You are way to smart for me :O Um, I think I take number 13.

Ellie_Penguin Posted January 9, 2008 Author Share Posted January 9, 2008 Usermaster: You are the winner! Isabel did a great job on answering the question; however, I was only asking for a single name XD. Usermaster you may pick a number and edit your post! AA: You win the Bonus. You actually posted a very good answer! I was only expecting the "we don't know" part. Trivia continues until they're none related Chameleon trivia! You don't have to wait until I post the next question to answer. But until someone else answer the Question of the Day, Usermaster you cannot answer the Trivia. Explanation: Right now because Usermaster answered the Question of the Day, he is not allowed to answer the bonus NOR the trivia. However, when I pick the next Question of the Day winner, that winner is not allowed to answer the bonus nor the trivia, but Usermaster will be allowed to. So guys, keep posting trivias! I'm sending the pending prizes right now. Sorry it took so long guys! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meeptroid Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 Oh! A trivia on reptiles... I'll give this a shot, although I am not sure how exactly everything works in the Trivia area. Trivia: The Chameleon's main predator appears to be snakes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ellie_Penguin Posted January 10, 2008 Author Share Posted January 10, 2008 Oh! A trivia on reptiles...I'll give this a shot, although I am not sure how exactly everything works in the Trivia area. Trivia: The Chameleon's main predator appears to be snakes. What happens is, there's always a limit on trivias. Meaning, at some point we'll all have to say that we cannot come up with any more Chameleon trivia. That's when we pick our winner. EDIT: Pending prizes have been sent! If you haven't received the proper prize, please let me know! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ellie_Penguin Posted January 11, 2008 Author Share Posted January 11, 2008 Question of the Day Subject: Math Level: Easy Answer: Long enough to explain your reasoning Remember Usermaster, you cannot answer this question nor the bonus or trivia! 9) Kerry loves dumplings. He can eat 32 of them in an hour. His brother Pete needs 3 hours to eat the same amount. How long will it take them both together to eat 32 dumplings? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Bonus Question (ONLY answer this if you weren't able to answer the Question of the Day) Prize: Dubloon -When are the 2008 U.S. Presidential elections? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ *NOTE* I still have to update my first post. I've been so busy so I wasn't able to do it today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DOOM Bringer Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 I'd say about 40 minutes My explanation is that Pete can eat 1/3 as fast as his brother so I subtracted 1/3 of an hour (20 minutes) Basically my explanation is that Pete's third plus Kerry's two thirds equals around 32. EDIT: I did some equations and around 40 to 45 minutes seemed to fit. But then again I could be completely and utterly wrong, at least I tried *shrugs* My maths say that 2/3 of 32 + 1/3 of that (Pete is a third the speed of Kerry) equals around 28-30 Basically around 40 minutes... EDIT: I'll take Number 1 :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ellie_Penguin Posted January 12, 2008 Author Share Posted January 12, 2008 DOOM: You get the credit because your answer was very accurate. The answer is 45 minutes, but did mention 40 to 45 so I'll accept that. And since no one else tried to answer it, then we need to have a winner XD. Pick a number and EDIT your post. Isabel: You are correct! -------------------------------------------- Question of the Day Subject: Biology Level: Easy-Medium Answer: Long or Short. 10) In this phase of mitosis, the chromatin condenses into discrete chromosomes. The nuclear envelope breaks down and spindles form at opposite poles of the cell. (name the phase) DOOM cannot answer this question nor the bonus or trivia. -------------------------------------------------- Bonus Question ( ONLY answer this if you haven't answered the question above) Prize: Food and Plushie -What is the most common element in the human body? ------------------------------------------------------ TRIVIA So can we still come up with any more Chameleon trivias? --------------------------------------------------------- HINT: Most questions have been easy.

antiaircraft Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 I believe the phase of mitosis you are referring to is prophase, where the cell prepares to divide, although some of the occurrences you mentioned could be considered part of prometaphase (sometimes said to be part of prophase). Edit: I pick 15. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
