What does a montreme mean?

I only have an issue with how the question is worded. Better perhaps, "Which of the following describes a Monotreme?" It seems like the question is asking what "monotreme" means.

Side note trivia: Monotreme is latin, and roughly translates to "one hole." This refers to the lack of separate urogenital and anal openings found in its members. Like birds, monotremes have a "unihole" or cloaca. Unihole is a great made up word

Which one is a famous parfume mark?

Omega
Miyako
Dolce & Gabbana
Rado

what's answer

There is a question that asks: How much volumes does the biggest dictionary in the world have? They say the answer is 16 and that is wrong. See here: http://wiki.answers.com/Q/What_is_the_world%27s_largest_dictionary
The 40-volume Woordenboek der Nederlandsche Taal (Dictionary of the Dutch Language) - or 43 volumes if you include the recent supplements. It took about 150 years to produce.

Who wrote "The Four Noble Truths" ?
Billy Graham
Chris West
The Dalai Lama
L Ron Hubbard

The Four Noble Truths appear many times, throughout the most ancient Buddhist texts, the Pali Canon. It wasn't written by the Dalai Lama.

For the question "What Country invented the Internet?" the answer is Russia but technically the US invented the internet as it is know today. Russia invented a network that evolved. I believe the answer is debateable.

I agree with you. In fact after spending several hours of searching I could not find a reference for any of the answer selections.

Someone asked where is the longest river in the World is and the answers provided were Africa, America, Europe and Asia. The answer given: America. Unfortunately, this is incorrect. Admittedly there has been a dispute as to whether the Amazon (America) or the Nile (Africa) are the longest rivers, but considering that the total length of the Amazon is only 3,980 miles and the Nile is 4,135 miles, the answer to the question should be Africa.

Longest River in the world question:

Nile(North/East Africa) - length: 4,135 miles - The Answer according to the sites I looked at to check.
Amazon(South America) - length: 3,980 miles - Quiz answer given as Correct.


- some researchers are claiming that the Amazon is actually longer than people think, but all the current lists say the Nile is longest.

Yes i was high-lighting the fact that i had already given the same facts the day before.

In Lord of the Ring, what form did the firework lit by Mary and his friend at the festival?

I think this was how this question was posted. Just needs better wording and a spelling correction. Also, in the book Gandalf ignited his fireworks without hobbit help.

In the cinema version of The Lord of the Rings, what form did the firework lit by Merry and Pippin take?

Wow, not only is that one poorly worded, but that is awfully specific knowledge.

I have checked my facts, and I checked yours, the site you list is run by a tour guide out of turkey, here is the from the bottom of the site.

All About Turkey © Burak Sansal 1996–2010, a certified professional tour guide in Turkey. Contact Burak at buraksan@superonline.com for all kinds of regular and/or private travel services throughout the country

This is generally considered a non scholarly or noncredable site. Since the owner is also the writer and doesn't say where he got his info from. My info on the other hand is from Archaeology Essentials a peer reviewed text book for a university Archaeology class. The authors are noted archaeologists as well as respected within their field. Unlike a tour guide who are known fudging the truth to spice up the tours a bit.

On the Donald and Keifer Sutherland question, just change the where are they from to what nationality are they. Since they both are of Canadian Nationality. It is quite true that Keifer and his sister were born in England, but during the time of their birth their father was working on several projects for BBC, so most likely his wife was over there with him during the pregancy. Which is why they retained there Canadian Nationality.

I have also checked your facts and it is not Heinrich Schliemann. The only logical explanation if it is not MacLaren or Schliemann is Frank Calvert in 1866 who made extensive surveys and published in scholary journals his identification of the hill of New Ilium. In 1868 Schliemann visited Calvert and secured permission to excavate Hisarlik.

In the question that is loosely like this: What does the word Prana mean? Two of the choices of the four are Life and Energy. The required answer is Energy but all the research says that the answer should be Life. Although energy is a part of answer too! It certainly seems that if weighted Life is the more correct answer.

Prana (प्राण, prāṇa) is the Sanskrit for "vital life" (from the root prā "to fill", cognate to Latin plenus "full"). It is one of the five organs of vitality or sensation, viz. prana "breath", vac "speech", caksus "sight", shrotra "hearing", and manas "thought" (nose, mouth, eyes, ears and mind; ChUp. 2.7.1).

I don't have exact wording of question, but it asked which actor did not play role (misspelled as roll) of Dr Hannibal Lecter. Answers:
Brian Cox
Sir Anthony Hopkins
Gaspard Ulliel
Aaran Thomas <- marked as correct.

In fact, all those actors portrayed Lecter. Aaran Thomas played young Hannibal Lecter in "Hannibal Rising" (2007). One can argue that played character wasn't M.D. yet and thus not Dr Hannibal Lecter, but I really hate trick questions of this kind.

Stingrays are a type of...Shark.

This question is very close to correct, but needs to be reworked. Stingrays are most closely related to...Sharks, would be fine. I may just being picky, but to me trivia should be correct, and rays are not types of sharks.

If I asked the question, Iguanas are a type of...and had the answer be "snake" most people would not agree. Yet lizards and snakes are classified under the same order, Squamata. They are very closely related, but not the same and each goes into its separate suborder. Sharks and rays belong to the same subclass, Elasmobranchii. Sharks are then placed into superorder Selachimorpha and rays into Batoidea. Ergo, they are not the same, but are closely related.

You know, just the first part of you complain was enough, you are right and the question should be changed. As for the rest, since noone doubted you there was no need to prove you know your zoology

The question "what element takes up most of your body" or something like that, don't know the wording anymore. The answer given to be right is Oxygen....this is the wrong answer..it should be water, and it is already listed...Clearly an example of someone not thinking correctly.
