Examples of FAQ:
** Question. Self-purification. What is self-purification? Answer: Self-purification is the complex process, or, more precisely, a set of natural processes in aquatic ecosystems, which lead to improving or maintaining water quality. Another term with a similar, but not completely the same meaning: assimilative capacity. 
Question. What kind of journal had published this paper? Answer: This is a high rank journal that is indexed by PubMed and Web of Science. More detail on the journal see at the site: http://www.researchgate.net/profile/Sergei_Ostroumov/blog/8962_publications_were_published_in_the_journal_Doklady_Biological_Sciences
Question: How broad is the geographical range of the area of potential relevance and application of the conclusions that were made in the paper? 
Answer: Just look on where the paper was cited: it was cited by the authors of other scientific articles who conducted their research in Europe, North America, and Asia (e.g., in China).
