The nose does not continue growing; it just stretches. As one ages the connection between cartilage (the nose 'bone') and bone weakens, and skin becomes more elastic. That, and the constant effect of gravity causes the nose (and ears) to elongated over the years.
Yeah, I've got a serious issue with that one. Eyelashes, like other hairs, grow. Your nose gets bigger for awhile when you're young, and then it stops growing just like arms and legs do.

Yes! Which blood type is compatible as a donor or as a recipient? Those are opposite, and both correct, answers. I guessed that they were asking as a donor so I guessed “incorrectly.”
Load More Replies..."Which blood type is *compatible*?" That is a VERY badly written question. Compatible HOW? As a DONOR, or as a RECIPIENT? AB can receive any type (A, B, AB, or O). O can donate to anyone. (Simplified to ignore Rh and other factors, of course.) But asking about 'compatibility' without specifying IN WHICH DIRECTION makes this question a coin flip!
At the end of the quiz, it ask me a question, How do I know all of these? Wish there was a way to answer that question. My answer would be that I am 65 and learned all these over the course of my life. Probably some of these in school.
24/27, but i have to admit that I had to translate some terms as they are definitely not used here in common language. Femur = Oberschenkelknochen. Guess the country, folks. ;D
No need to guess the country, but I would be interested in a literal English translation of oberschenkelknochen if you'd be so kind. I'm assuming it's 'upper leg bone' but that's just a guess.

Individual eyelashes don't continue to grow throughout life; they grow to a certain length then stop growing and fall out to be replaced by new ones on a constant cycle.

The school system is not underfunded. It is that way by design. The desired product is dumb little worker bees, not educated citizens who possess critical thinking skills.
