Round 1
RULES
• This round consist of 6 Questions
• Will be based on Bounce and Pounce system
• Other teams can pounce on the question at the cost
of negative marks
• Direct Questions will not carry negative marks
• There will be no negative for passed questions
MARKING SCHEME
+10, -5 (For Pounce)
1) Id this Stalwart in space exploration, often called as The
Usherer of Space Age
Robert H Goddard
2) Which Famous Mathematicians 125th Birthday does this google doodle
commemorate?
Sreenivasa Ramanujan
3)Unlike vertebrates, these do not have hemoglobin in their blood, but instead
use hemocyanin to carry oxygen. Because of the copper present in hemocyanin, their
blood is blue. Their blood contains amebocytes, which play a similar role to the white
blood cells of vertebrates in defending the organism against pathogens. ID this

PM2.5 pollution level in air quality index
4)A first edition of this work became the most expensive print sold of
the revolutionary text as it went for 1million dollars
Written in latin and published in 1687, it laid out ground breaking
theories, and introduced a more rigorous mathematical method to
physical science.
ID This Seminal work.
Pricipia Mathematica
5)X were found emanating from Crookes tubes,
experimental discharge tubes invented around 1875, by scientists
investigating the cathode rays, that is energetic electron beams, that
were first created in the tubes.
Many of the early Crookes tubes undoubtedly radiated X, because early
researchers noticed effects that were attributable to them.
Wilhelm ________ was the first to systematically study them, in 1895
ID X

the Phasianidae family, the pheasants and their allies. There are two Asiatic
species: the blue or Indian X originally of India, Sri Lanka, and Pakistan; and
the green X of Myanmar, Indo china, and Java; and one African species,
the Congo X, native only to the Congo Basin. Male X are known for their
piercing call and their extravagant plumage.
