It’s time for another round of science trivia. This week, we’ve got ancient questions about what happened before the Jurassic, and a puzzler about what meteoroids are.
Congratulations! You’re a real science whiz!
Oh dear! Better brush up before the next quiz!
Crepuscular animals are most active at twilight, around dawn and dusk.
Adamantium is a fictional metal, appearing in Marvel comics.
A meteoroid is a small lump of rock in space. A meteor is a streak of light from space rock burning up in the atmosphere, and a meteorite is any space rock that’s made it to the ground on the surface of a planet or moon.
The Triassic was just before the Jurassic, and it was the first era of dinosaurs.
Earth used to spin faster than it does now. That means there were more rotations in a year, which means more days in a year!
