[Answer] Which continent falls on all four hemispheres?

Step 1 : Introduction to the question "Which continent falls on all four hemispheres?"



...Africa is the only continent that stretches across all four hemispheres, making it the only one crossed by both the Prime Meridian and the Equator. Its sheer size is often overlooked—Africa is larger than China, the United States, India, and Mexico combined. Because of its position straddling both the Northern and Southern Hemispheres, Africa experiences a wide range of climates, many of which remain relatively stable throughout the year. As a result, unlike other continents that are known to experience different seasons throughout the year, most of the countries of Africa do not have well defined seasons.

[Answer] Which Ivy League school is located in the “Nutmeg State”?

Step 1 : Introduction to the question "Which Ivy League school is located in the “Nutmeg State”?"



...Connecticut is known as “The Nutmeg State,” a nickname that traces back to traveling Connecticut peddlers who were famous for selling nutmegs throughout the region. The state is also home to Yale University, the Ivy League research institution located in New Haven. Founded in 1701, Yale is the third-oldest institution of higher education in the United States and is widely regarded as one of the most prestigious universities in the world. Yale has produced five U.S. presidents as well as celebrated figures such as Meryl Streep, Paul Newman, Jodie Foster, Paul Giamatti, and James Franco.

[Answer] Which of these U.S. paper currency bills features a landmark not located in Washington, D.C.?

Step 1 : Introduction to the question "Which of these U.S. paper currency bills features a landmark not located in Washington, D.C.?"



...Most U.S. paper currency highlights famous landmarks in Washington, D.C. For example, the $5 bill features the Lincoln Memorial, the $10 bill shows the U.S. Treasury Building, and the $20 bill depicts the White House—each symbolizing key pillars of American government. One major denomination breaks this long-standing pattern. The notable exception is the $100 bill, whose reverse depicts Independence Hall in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, the historic site of the signing of both the Declaration of Independence and the U.S. Constitution.

[Answer] Which of these U.S. presidents did not graduate from a U.S. military academy?

Step 1 : Introduction to the question "Which of these U.S. presidents did not graduate from a U.S. military academy?"



...Many American presidents attended or graduated from U.S. military academies, most notably West Point and the U.S. Naval Academy. Ulysses S. Grant and Dwight D. Eisenhower were distinguished West Point graduates, while Jimmy Carter graduated from the Naval Academy. Herbert Hoover, however, had no military academy background at all—he earned a degree in geology from Stanford University and spent his early career as a mining engineer. His non-military academic path makes him the only correct choice among the options.

[Answer] The Ramones named their band after an alias used by which famous musician?

Step 1 : Introduction to the question "The Ramones named their band after an alias used by which famous musician?"



...The Ramones famously borrowed their band name from Paul McCartney, who early in his career often checked into hotels under the alias “Paul Ramon.” When the band was forming in the 1970s, they loved the sound of the pseudonym and adopted “Ramone” as a shared surname, even though none of the members were biologically related. Each member took on a Ramone moniker—Joey Ramone, Johnny Ramone, Dee Dee Ramone, and so on—helping solidify the group’s iconic punk image. Their name pays homage not to another band, but to a clever bit of Beatles history.
