General knowledge quiz!

GreenTeaGreenTea Posts: 12,938 Born on Earth, Raised by The Mix
Hello all!

So I just thought of a cool game to play! Ok so I'm going to ask a general knowledge question, and you have to answer and leave a general knowledge question for the next person on the thread! 
And then if you post again at all you can say if the answer was correct or give the right answer in any thread you post as like a Ps kinda thing!
It's just a little fun!

So the first question is:


what sea does the river nile flow into?

    This is a great idea @GreenTea I love quizzes! Thanks for posting this thread :) 

    Here's my answer

    Here's my question: 
    Who painted the Mona Lisa? 


    Maybe somethings don't get better, but we do. We get stronger. We learn to live with our situations as messy and ugly as they are. We fix what we can and we adapt to what we can't. Maybe some of us will never fully be okay, but at least we're here. We're still trying. We're doing the best we can. That's worth celebrating too ❤

    Sorry @Kasa2103 I think the wording of my question was a bit confusing!

    This is a geographical feature, on Earth, which you can see from space (i.e the international space station or something), that is so big all the rivers on Earth would only fill half of it.

    And I don't know what the maximum sentence for ket possession is and I think that's a good thing?  :p
    @Aidan The sentence is up to 5 years and you can get an unlimited fine (or both.) I watch too much TV about the police don't I?

    What is the word equation for photosynthesis?
