Ok here is another one! :)!
This is a god. 1. Who was the god of the Underworld, chaos, and the enemy of the sun? Was it Apophis, Aten, Baal, Benu or Bes.
(It was not Seth because he is also the ruler of the desert but not enemy of the sun, and it is not Osiris because he is the god of the dead and the Afterlife).


This is a goddess. 2. Was the divine personification of truth, order and justice. Was it Maat, Isis, Seshat, Tefnut, or Bat.

Apophis is the deification of darkness and chaos and the opponent of light and Ma'at.
Aten is the sun god, who became the sole god for a short while under the reign of Ankhenaten (Tut's dad) during what is known as the Amarna period.
Baal is a title for a god, and was mostly used in ancient Mesopotamia.
Bennu is asaid to be the soul of the sun god, Ra/Re.
Bes is a protective diety who did gain poipularity until well into the new kingdom.

Ma'at is the goddess of truth and justice. In the underworld, a person's heart would be weighed against a feather symbolizing Ma'at.
Isis is the wife of Osiris and mother of Horus.
Seshat is the deification of wisdom, and thus the goddess of writing, astronomy, math, and architecture.
Tefnut is the goddess of water and fertility.
Bata is the deification of the Milky Way, a cow goddess. I'm not sure how she differed from Hathor.

So the answer is:
1. Apophis
2. Ma'at
