The reading and the lecture are both about the Edmontosaurs. The author of the reading states that Edmontosaurs animals survived in the winter by migrating to hospitable or warmer regions and provides three reasons for support. However, the lecturer explains that Edmontosaurs did not migrate to other regions during the winter and refutes each of the author's points.
First, the article conveys that due to insufficient food in the winter and dark north winter Edmontosaurus has migrated to other regions. On the other hand, the lecturer refutes this point by saying that in Alaska's North slope sun shines 24 hours. Hence, there is a chance for growing a large number of plants with highly nutritious food.
Second, the text explains that Edmontosaurus have migrated in herbs. Nevertheless, the professor opposes this point by explaining that if they migrate in herbs predators can easily attack them. He also provided an example of U.S animal which moved in herbs was affected by predators.
Third, the article posits that Edmontosaurs can move long distances easily by using its locomotive energy at the speed of 45 kilometers per hour. However, the professor says that they were not physically capable of moving to long distances and adults also cannot move. They were slow and can't reach destinations with less time.
