ANSWERS

1. What mountain is neighbored by Amboseli, Arusha, and Tsavo National Parks?

Kilimanjaro

2. What is singer/actor Kristoffer Kristofferson’s real name?

Kristoffer Kristofferson. That's his real name. Sort of a trick question but once I found this fact I wanted to use it. I was incredibly lenient on grading this question. Normally people who answer a question with a question confound me because I don't know if that is an answer or not but in this case I took it in the spirit that the person really wanted to answer Kristoffer Kristofferson but just wasn't clear. And I was lenient on spelling because I can be if I want.

3. One degree of temperature magnitude on the Celsius scale is the same as one degree on what “K” scale?

Kelvin


4. What suit is a “Suicide King”?

Hearts
