While the reading passage outlines several arguments over the hypothesis that bees existed 200 million years ago and whether structures were created by bees, the lecturer expresses a different point of view.
Firstly, the reading contends that there is no evidence of 200-million-year-old fossils related to bees and the earliest of them is 100 million years old. The professor, however, raises skepticism about this assertion by explaining that the reason for the lack of fossil remains can be the non-existence of materials that are needed for preservation. She emphasizes that resin is a necessary material in the process of fossil formation, but 200 million years ago there were no trees that could produce resin.
Secondly, the article asserts that absence of flowering plants 200-million years ago that bees depend on could be another proof. On the contrary, the professor counters this idea by saying that early bees might fed on non-flowering plants, such as fern and pine trees. According to her, after the advent of flowering plants, bees started to adapt to them and created a relationship with them.
Finally, the reading posits that differences in the details between modern-day bee nests and fossilized structures indicates that instead of bees they were made by other insects. The professor disputes this claim by elaborating that chemically analyzing the fossilized chambers, scientists discovered that they contained the same material that modern bees produce to protect their nests against water.
