And for anyone working on Alixtended #2, you should find this link most informative, although it won't get you all the way there.

While some of the spellings are British/Australian, few of the concepts in Alixtended #1 are, and while Alixtended #2 is very Australia-centric, reference materials are readily available to anyone with access to an internet search engine.

Unfortunately, I'm going to decline. While I've happily provided hints, I'm not the Internet Answering Service, and once I open that door there's no closing it again (i.e. if I give you the answers, I have to give them to anyone who asks, and I don't want to be in that position); sorry.

I read that there is a spelling error on here and it MUST BE for # 32.
Can anyone help me? I am sure I have it but it just doesn't work! 
Thanks!

(I assume you are refering to the original questionaire, and not one of the "ailextended" versions). There is a grammatical error in #33, but #32 is spelled correctly. Are you sure you have the correct spelling? The word in question has two double consonants, and uses a third consonant twice. It also uses three vowels, one of them twice.

23 Pairs of Chromsomes in the human Body?
I hope there are a lot more than that in mine. After all each cell should have its own set of chromosomes...
Its not even accurate. In the human genome perhaps?

So far with intelligence: "You should not publish the answers in forums, etc."
Well, you ruined that question for me... now I cannot know if I would have been a real genius!

Thanks. After seeing all the answers I would assume that only half of them might be related to something like intelligence (if at all)!
That's quite a relief as I was starting to get worried about my inner self.

The Flying Spaghetti Monster disapproves of this test.
Having seeing it in the easy forum is helpful when you go to do the real thing.
