97. How are sea shells formed? With Helen Scales. What is the rarest animal in the world? How long can frogs survive underwater?
Description
On this award-winning show Molly Oldfield, the original QI elf, Guardian kids' quiz compiler and writer (of four books), answers questions sent in by children around the world.
This week, we’re continuing our new season of Everything Under the Sun with a wonderful episode featuring author and marine biologist Helen Scales. Helen answers a question sent in by Rian about how shells are formed, explaining which animals create which shells, and how!
And Molly answers two more curious questions from our listeners: ‘what is the rarest animal in the world?’ from Alex and ‘how long can frogs last underwater?’ from Lola!
