    I didn't do biology to that level, but I did managed to guess a few of them.

    I didn't do biology so I was screwed from the start.

    "Which electromagnetic waves have the highest frequency?": Strictly speaking, X-rays and gamma rays are produced by different processes. Although most gamma rays have a higher frequency than most X-rays, there are (relatively) low-frequency gamma rays and (relatively) high-frequency X-rays.

    Sublimation is the process by which _ice_ turns into vapour.

    It's a solid to vapor transition, not necessarily ice to vapor. Under earth conditions, we only see dry ice and occasionally water ice do so, but it can happen to other elements under other conditions.

    #3 can't be answered. There is no greenhouse effect on Venus. Radiation from the sun does not penetrate the atmosphere in a significant amount. The planet is hot from its internal heat which cannot radiate due to the thickness of the atmosphere.

    Actually there was a greenhouse effect on Venus which caused it to become super hot. Venus used to be just like earth but the increase in luminosity of the sun caused its oceans to evaporate and since water vapour is a greenhouse gas, this led to more water evaporating which led to more global warming. Plus, Venus has a pretty weak magnetic field which allowed for more solar radiation to reach the surface. Over millions of years this process caused Venus to become what it is so now it can keep itself warm due to this incredible heat

    I don't recall ever doing stuff about some of those cell internal parts of functions. I guess the curriculum has moved on a bit since I was at school. But I would argue that those and a few of the others are not so much "general" science knowledge as "what's taught in US high schools".

    Internal parts of the cell were taught in middle school.
