    27/30. I think 'Eclipse' was a bit misleading. It's one solar body blocking another. Also cadence is ' the beat, time, or measure of rhythmical motion or activity'.

    #12 I feel that Biome is equally as good an answer from the stated definition. Clicked it before I read down to ecosystem, so I'll claim full morks for this one anyway.

    A biome is a particular geographical area that contains one or more ecosystems. For example; the Amazon Rainforest is a biome and the plants, animals and rivers within the Rainforest form it's terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems.
