What we verified before publishing

Fact-check status: passed

The following claims were verified through Perplexity Sonar before the questions were finalised. The host can reference any of them during play:

• All living things are made of cells, which is the smallest unit that can be considered alive.
• Unicellular organisms consist of a single cell, while multicellular organisms consist of many different types of cells.
• The cell membrane forms the boundary of a cell that controls what enters and leaves the cell.
• Photosynthesis is the process where plants use sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide to create sugar and oxygen.
• Chlorophyll in plant cells captures sunlight energy to drive the process of photosynthesis.
• Photosynthesis is the foundation of virtually all food webs because it produces the energy that consumers need.
• Producers make their own food, consumers eat other organisms, and decomposers break down dead matter in food webs.
• Predators hunt and eat prey, which is a key relationship in biological communities.
• Organisms adapt to biotic factors like other living things and abiotic factors like temperature and water to survive in their ecosystem.
• The carbon, water, and nitrogen cycles are essential processes where matter cycles through ecosystems and organisms.
• Plant roots are the first part that emerges from a seed to grow and absorb water and nutrients.
• Living things react to their environment; for example, flower petals close at night and lizards become more active when they warm up in the sun.
