The reading passage and the lecture area both about a characteristic about dinosaurs. The author of the reading feels that dinosaurs were endotherms and maintained their body temperature at a constant level. The lecturer challenges the each of the points made by the author. She is of the opinion that dinosaurs were not endotherms.
To begin with, the authors claims that dinosaurs fossils have been found in polar region.Only animals, which can maintain their body temperature at a stable level, can live in the polar areas. The lecturer casts doubt on this by saying that polar areas were much more warmer at that time period as compared to today. Additionally, she contends that the dinosaurs might have moved to warmer area or went for hibernation in colder months like other animals.
Secondly, the author believes that dinosaurs were endotherms because of their leg position and movement. It is mentioned in the article that dinosaurs' legs were underneath their body it is similar to the modern day endotherms. The author, however, rebuts this point by saying that it is not necessary that animals having legs underneath their body are definitely endotherms. Further, she claims that the legs were positioned underneath to support their heavy body weight.
Finally, the author believes that the dinosaurs were endotherms because their bones included Harvesian canals. The article mentions that these canals results in quick body growth, which is a characteristic of endotherms. In contrast, the lecturer states that their body contained growth rigs too. The endotherms grow rapid in all kind of environment but the dinosaurs' growth was slow in colder region and rapid in warmer region. This proves that dinosaurs were not endotherms.
