TPO-29 - Integrated Writing Task Large numbers of dinosaur fossils have been discovered in deposits on Alaska's North Slope, a region that today experiences an extremely cold,arctic climate. One hundred million years ago, when those dinosaurs were alive,

In the set of the materials, the article states that Edmontosaur migrate to southern part and provides three reasons to support. However, In the lecture, the professor explains that this migration didn't happen and refutes each of the author's reasons.

First, the reading claims that plants can't grow during the winter of North Slope because of its darkness and coldness. however, the professor argues that North Slope summer was more warmer than now and the time of sunshine was excellent for plant growing. Therefore, Edmontosaur can live easily during the winter by ate dead vegetation that had grown in summer.

Second, the reading passage states that because Edmontosaur lived in herd they might migrate during winter. The professor counters this point by stating that a lot of creatures live in herd for a various reason like extra protection. According to the professor, Roosevelt elks live in herd but they don't migrate.

Third, the reading makes the argumentation that since Edmontosaurs had a strong bodies, they used them for migration. The professor refutes this claim by pointing out that juvenile Edmontosaur wasn't physically capable and adults Edmontosaur can't put them behind because young dinosaurs wouldn't have survived.

To summarize, in this reading, the author says that Edmontosaur migrate from North Slope to more comfortable regions. However, the professor disagree with this idea and gives three pieces of evidence to show that this dinosaur didn't migrate during winter.
