▶ Your Answer :
The lecture objects to the points mentioned
in the reading passage made about the fact that dinosaurs are endotherms. The speaker argues that the notations notitions in the reading passage have flaws.
First
of all, the speaker argues that the claim about cold inhabit(???) is wrong. We need
to take a look at the theory stated in the reading more closely. The
temperature of the polar area in the past is not cold as much as that of today. Moreover,
If the weather in the polar area was cold as much as today', dinosaurs would have
migrated warmer area or hibernated. This casts doubt on the claim that
dinosaurs could be endotherms because reptiles cannot cannot survive in cold
weather.
Second,
the lecturer points out that the assertion regarding leg position of disnosaurs is mistaken.
It is hasty to conclude just by looking at this hypothesis mentioned in the
reading. The reason why dinosaurs' leg position is under the body is just for
supporting giant weight, but not the reason for endotherms. This goes against the
author's claim that dinosaurs' body structures provide them with endotherms.
Finally,
the professor contends that the opinion concerning Haversian canals is flawed.
The reading is missing key points. Haversian canals is are only a hallmark of
endothermy which makes them grow quickly. However, dinosaur bone's features
show that they grow up fast in warm weather and slow in cold weather. This
cycle could be repeated. This is in direct opposition to the author's claim
that dinosaurs are endotherms due to Haversian canals. |
