Lambeosaurs, a group of dinosaurs with large bony crests on their heads, each with hollow passages. The passage highlights that the purpose of these crests remains uncertain, with scientists proposing various theories to explain their function. However, the professor contradicts the passage by expressing skepticism about the theories proposed in the passage regarding the functions of the crests. Firstly, The passage suggests that the crests in lambeosaurs were primarily for enhancing their sense of smell, based on the presence of blood vessels in the crests. However, the professor contradicts this theory by pointing out that the underdeveloped brain area adjacent to the crests, as evidenced by fossils, does not align with the idea of an improved sense of smell. The professor suggests that the crests were not related to improving their sense of smell, as animals with a strong sense of smell typically have well-developed brain areas for processing olfactory information. Secondly, The professor contradicts the passage's theory that the crests in lambeosaurs served to prevent overheating by enhancing cooling mechanisms. While the passage draws a parallel between the crests oflambeosaurs and the bony plates of stegosaurs as adaptations for cooling, the professor disputes this idea. The professor asserts that there are significant differences between the two groups. Stegosaurs had numerous bony plates covering a substantial portion of their backs. In contrast, lambeosaurs had only one crest, and the additional surface area it provided was so minimal that it would not have offered a genuine advantage in terms of cooling. The passage suggests that lambeosaurs may have used their crests for sound communication. However, the professor contradicts this theory by stressing that all lambeosaur species had crests, implying they should all possess good hearing if sound communication were accurate. The professor highlights the absence of evidence for good hearing in most lambeosaur species, except for one, suggesting that skepticism should be maintained regarding the theory of crests for sound communication unless further evidence emerges.
