Summarize the points made in the lecture, being sure to explain how they cast doubt on the specific points made in the reading passage
The reading and the lecture offer two opposing views on the arguements about the power of Pterosausrs for flight. Whereas the author of the reading suggests that skepticals don't believe that Pterosaurs could fly, the lecturer states that the evidences shows that they had the ability to fly. She casts doubt on the mein points made in the lecture by providing three reasons.
First, according to the text, Pterosaurs were cold-booded because they werer kind of reptiles, and as a result, they did not have sufficient energy for flying. However, the lecturer disputes that due to the fossils of Prerosaurs which have a kind of dence hair like fur, they were able of keeping their bodies' temperature high. Consequently, they supplyed them enough energy for flight.
Secondly, the reading claims that Pterosaurs were too large and heavy to be able for flying. Nevertheless, the lecturer implies that owing to the light, hollow bones that they had, they were weighing lightly. Therefore, Pterosaurs could keep airborne with lower energy.
Finally, although the text states that Petrosaurs had very weak back-legs which made them difficult to run fast and jump as high as birds, the lecturer explains that they had four limbs in comparison to the birds with only two limbs. Moreover, she says that because of the use of their four limbs, they could push thir bodies and run rapidly, and so jump highly, and they had no difficulty to fly.
To recap, the lecture and the text provide the three contradict opinions about wheter Pterosaurs could fly or not.
