Answer to Question 1

d.
Protons bind with both protons and neutrons, demonstrating that the charge of the nucleon is independent of action of the strong force. The nn potential curve seems to be the same as the pp potential curve for the strong force.

Answer to Question 2

Neutrinos (and antineutrinos) must exist to conserve the spin angular momentum in beta decay, for example the decay of a neutron. The neutrino has neutral charge, little or no mass, and is very difficult to detect.
b.

Hippocrates noted that blood separates into four differently colored liquids when removed from the body and examined: a pure red liquid mixed with white liquid material with a yellow-colored froth at the top and a black substance that settles underneath; he named these the four humors (for blood, phlegm, yellow bile, and black bile).

There can actually be a 25-hour time difference between certain locations in the world. The International Date Line passes between the islands of Samoa and American Samoa. It is not a straight line, but "zig-zags" around various island chains. Therefore, Samoa and nearby islands have one date, while American Samoa and nearby islands are one day behind. Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.
