TPO4 Q1
In this set of materials, the article states that dinosaurs are endotherms and provides three reasons of supports. However, the professor explains that by saying that all information in article are incorrect and refutes each of author's reasons.
First, the reading states that dinosaurs were living in polar regions because many of dinosaur fossils founded in polar regions. The professor refutes this point by stating that the polar regions were more warm from this time and the dinosaur was migrating to warm area.
Second, the article claims that position of legs in dinosaur are positioned underneath it's body. that is helped dinosaurs to warm his body from physical activity. However, the professor contends that the legs position for carry body and weight because dinosaurs are so huge. The legs did not use for running.
Third, the reading avers that the bones of dinosaurs usually include structure called Haversian Canals. These canals house nerves and blood vessels that allow the living animal to grow quickly, and rapid growth. The lecture opposes this point by saying that they are really had Haversian Canals, but they had growth link. These show growth animals and they stop growth or still growth. But it is not indicated for endotherm.
