yes
no

b) understandable
c) safe
3) Creative constraints are defined as _____________
_____________________________________________________________________________________(0.47)
4) What creative constraints restrict all projects?
a) elves, trolls, giants
b) cost, materials, unbreakable laws of physics
c) teachers, friends, unbreakable laws of policemen
d) attitude, sleepiness, interest
5) What are the professions mentioned in the video that deal with creative constraints?
6) Creative constraints are drivers of
a) cleaning and time
b) cars and busses
c) discovery and invention
d) wealth and weddings
7) Constraints are an essential part of experimental design. In order to create an experiment that tells us how a virus infects the body's cells, a scientist would have to consider (pick two)
a) what tools and techniques are available
b) what limits knowledge prevent understanding this new viral pathway
