#1. Which cup receives water first? 💦 The path may be trickier than it looks!

Here are the obvious cups that will never fill. First, cup 4, because it is blocked, as well as cup 6. Cup 3 and Cup 5 both have holes. So, now it is down to cups 1 and 2, which will be filled really closely, but due to cup 1 having 2 holes, the most likely answer is cup 2.

#2. Which animal has the longest lifespan? While many animals live for decades, one deep-sea creature can survive for centuries. Which one holds the record for the longest life?

#3. Which cup will fill first? 💧 Observe the pipes carefully! Which cup gets water first?

This one should be easy. Cup 1 is small but since it will be harder for the water to flow upside down, it will take a lot of time. Cup 4 is a good choice but cups 2 and 3 have better water flow due to their positions. Cup 3 is closer but cup 2 is smaller. Since there is a hole in the pipes leading to cup 3, that could affect the flow, the likely answer is cup 2.

#4. What is the only continent with land in all four hemispheres? This massive landmass extends across the Northern, Southern, Eastern, and Western Hemispheres. Which continent is it?

#5. Can you figure out which cup fills up first? 💧

The answer here requires good observational skills. Cup 3 will never fill as it has a hole. Cup 2 has a closed path, and cup 4 is way above the flow before it even begins getting some water. However, if you observe the top of the cup 2 pipe there is a hole in cup 1 which will lead directly back again to cup 2, which is our answer.

#6. What is the deepest point in the Earth’s oceans? This trench reaches depths of nearly 36,000 feet, making it the lowest point on Earth. What is it called?

#7. Look closely! Which cup fills first? 🚰 The water follows gravity—where does it go first?

The answer here also requires some observational skills. Cup 2’s path is blocked, and cup 4 will require the longest time before it even begins getting some water. Cup 3 might fill first, but if you look closely there are 2 paths going to cup 5 that make it the better choice. The hole in cup 1 that does not have a pipe, the water is still expected to go to cup 5, making it our answer.

#8. Which element is necessary for fire to burn? A flame cannot sustain itself without this key element in the air. What is it?

#9. Last challenge! Which cup gets filled before the rest? 🧐 Pay attention to the water’s path!

If you look closely, cup 4 has 2 holes where it will get some water after some time. Cup 3 will be very close by then, but our answer is still cup 4.

#10. What gas do plants absorb from the air for photosynthesis? Plants play a vital role in reducing this gas from the atmosphere, converting it into oxygen. What gas is essential for this process?
