In this task you will be given a text passage from a trivia quiz. You should choose the category this question belongs to from these categories: History, Science, Social Science, Fine Arts, Literature. You can only choose one category, so if in doubt, please choose the closest match.

Q: LDA is used to transform propargyl diol into one of these compounds in the Whiting reaction. A  useful one of these compounds is synthesized using zinc chloride to combine trimethylsilyl chloride  with methoxybutenone. The namesake value of these compounds is expressed as the mass of iodine  equivalent to the amount of (*) maleic anhydride reacting with a unit mass of one of these. The  cumulated type of these compounds are less stable than other types. Electrophilic addition can result in  both 1,2 and 1,4 additions in the conjugated type of these molecules. That type also undergoes a type of  reaction that follows the endo addition rule and forms cyclohexenes, the Diels-Alder reaction. For 10  points, name these hydrocarbons that contain two carbon-carbon double bonds.

Q: It is not serotonin, but the selective reuptake of this compound is inhibited by tiagabine, and it is converted to succinic acid semi-aldehyde, which is subsequently oxidized to succinic acid in the shunt which produces this compound. One receptor for it forms a heteropentameric complex and in immature neurons, this compound facilitates the outward flux of chloride ions, which is why benzodiazepines are ineffective anticonvulsants in newborns. One receptor for it includes a benzodiazepine binding site, and isoguvacine THIP, and muscimol serve as competitive agonists to this molecule. Synthesized by the decarboxylation of glutamic acid, this neurotransmitter is best known for its role as the chief inhibitory neurotransmitter. For 10 points, identify this neurotransmitter, which is often referred to by its four letter acronym.

Q: This god is associated with the Hieroglyph for the word sesh. A minor form of this god is depicted as a male goat, and he is sometimes depicted carrying a palm leaf. In The Book of Two Ways, the dead are said to become stars and reside next to this god. In a Ptolemaic-era epic about this god, Neferkaptah and Khaemwaset seek a possession of this god, but experience tragedy when they acquire it. The sound of this gods voice once caused the primordial god Nu, also called Nun, to give birth to additional gods. In another story, he uses magical semen to transform himself into the sun. The Greeks called him Trismegistos, or the Thrice Great. He is sometimes considered a moon god or given the head of a baboon, and his deeds include healing other gods. He participates in the judgment of the dead by recording their verdicts. For ten points, name this Ibis-headed Egyptian god of wisdom and writing.
