Question

Consider the following pairs: Terms sometimes seen in news — Context/Topic 1. Belle II experiment — Artificial Intelligence 2. Blockchain technology — Digital/Cryptocurrency 3. CRISPR – Cas9 — Particle Physics Which of the pairs given above is/are correctly matched?

Accepted Answer

2 only. Belle II's website describes a detector built to search beyond the Standard Model of particle physics, using electron-positron collisions from SuperKEKB. So the Belle II and Artificial Intelligence pair is wrong. NIST describes blockchains as digital ledgers and says the first blockchain-based cryptocurrency was Bitcoin. So the Blockchain and Digital/Cryptocurrency pair is right. The 2020 Nobel Prize announcement calls CRISPR/Cas9 genetic scissors that cut DNA. So the CRISPR-Cas9 and Particle Physics pair is wrong. Only the second pair is matched correctly.
