Explanation

In the Dragon Ball series, Goku's original Saiyan birth name is Kakarot (or Kakarrot), which is phonetically similar to 'Kakkrot' as given in option A.

Explanation

When Vegeta first arrived on Earth, he was accompanied by Nappa, his loyal Saiyan comrade. They came to find the Dragon Balls and eliminate Goku. Raditz (Goku's brother) had already come to Earth earlier and was killed. Freeza was the galactic emperor they served but did not accompany them to Earth. Piccolo was defending Earth, not allied with Vegeta at that time.

  5. Gohan

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
D Correct answer
Explanation

Raditz was killed through the combined efforts of both Goku and Piccolo. They had to team up because Piccolo's Special Beam Cannon was the only attack powerful enough to penetrate Raditz's defenses, and Goku had to hold Raditz in place, sacrificing his own life in the process. Neither Goku nor Piccolo could have defeated Raditz alone at that point in the series. Krillin and Gohan did not deliver the finishing blow.

Multiple choice general knowledge
  1. pine boy

  2. pine head

  3. wood boy

  4. wood head

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

The name Pinocchio comes from Italian 'pinocchio' meaning 'pine cone' or 'pine nut' (from 'pino' = pine tree). Since the character is a wooden puppet, 'pine head' correctly captures that he's made of pine wood. 'Wood boy' is close but less precise since the name specifically references pine.
