The reading and the lecture discuss a theory about the builder of a nest that has been found inside a fossilized tree in Arizona. The passage claims that several reasons demonstrate that bees were not the habitats of the nest. In other words, bees did not build the nest. However, the speaker brings up three reasons to rebut all dubious ideas presented in the passage and states that several pieces of evidence show that the nest was made by bees.
First of all, the writer holds the view that no bee’s fossil has been found from 200 million years ago. Accordingly, this nest which has been built 200 million years ago did not belong to bees. In contrast, the lecturer refutes this idea and underlines the fact that the absent of fossilized bees doesn't imply the absent of bee. As a matter of fact, a specific tree makes a special resin that is used for fossilizing. This type of tree was not common at that time. The main reason for the absence of fossilized bee is that there was not this type of tree to produce this specific resin.
Second of all, the passage contends that absence of flowering plants shows that there was not any bee 200 million years ago, since flowering plants are the main source of food for bees. However, the speaker contradicts this contention and asserts that flowering plants are the crucial source of nutrition for modern bees which does not demonstrate that ancient bee also used flowing plants. Indeed, some theories show that bees used to feed on fern and pine trees which are none flowering. Feeding on flowering plants is kind of adaptation of bees. In other words, the absence of flowering plants doesn't concludes the absence of bees.
Finally, the writer states that there is some different between the nest structure and modern bees’ nest design. On the contrary, the professor rebuts this statement and stresses that the unsimilarity in some details is not a convincing evidence. As a matter of fact, some chemical evidence supports the presence of bees on the nest. Bees produce some waterproofing material that has been found on the nest. Bees are the only producer of that specific material which shows that the nest was built by bees.
