Context and question: The DIN system, officially DIN standard 4512 by Deutsches Institut fur Normung (but still named Deutscher Normenausschu (DNA) at this time), was published in January 1934. It grew out of drafts for a standardized method of sensitometry put forward by Deutscher Normenausschu fur Phototechnik as proposed by the committee for sensitometry of the Deutsche Gesellschaft fur photographische Forschung since 1930 and presented by Robert Luther (de) (18681945) and Emanuel Goldberg (18811970) at the influential VIII. International Congress of Photography (German: Internationaler Kongre fur wissenschaftliche und angewandte Photographie) held in Dresden from August 3 to 8, 1931.
What was proposed at the VIII International Congress of Photography?
Answer: a standardized method of sensitometry
Context and question: Many organisms (of which humans are prime examples) eat from multiple levels of the food chain and, thus, make this classification problematic. A carnivore may eat both secondary and tertiary consumers, and its prey may itself be difficult to classify for similar reasons. Organisms showing both carnivory and herbivory are known as omnivores. Even herbivores such as the giant panda may supplement their diet with meat. Scavenging of carrion provides a significant part of the diet of some of the most fearsome predators. Carnivorous plants would be very difficult to fit into this classification, producing their own food but also digesting anything that they may trap. Organisms that eat detritivores or parasites would also be difficult to classify by such a scheme.
What are plants that eat both living species and consume sunlight for energy called?
Answer: Carnivorous plants
Context and question: Miami is noted as "the only major city in the United States conceived by a woman, Julia Tuttle", a local citrus grower and a wealthy Cleveland native. The Miami area was better known as "Biscayne Bay Country" in the early years of its growth. In the late 19th century, reports described the area as a promising wilderness. The area was also characterized as "one of the finest building sites in Florida." The Great Freeze of 189495 hastened Miami's growth, as the crops of the Miami area were the only ones in Florida that survived. Julia Tuttle subsequently convinced Henry Flagler, a railroad tycoon, to expand his Florida East Coast Railway to the region, for which she became known as "the mother of Miami." Miami was officially incorporated as a city on July 28, 1896 with a population of just over 300. It was named for the nearby Miami River, derived from Mayaimi, the historic name of Lake Okeechobee.
When did the Great Freeze occur?
Answer:
189495
