One obstacle is that fossils are really hard to find. “The fossil plants are difficult to find,” (said Dr.Johnson). He has to continually search all around Western North America to find fossils and then he has to dig the fossil’s up which can be scattered across land. It can be hard to find certain forms of sedimentary rock that have fossils in them, it can take a long time to get to the sedimentary rock (Hays). Another obstacle is that he has to base his research about past climate on just fossil leaves.…
Construction workers were just digging on a mountain in Santa Cruz County, California. They were surprised when they came across fossils during their dig, but it's not unusual to find fossils in a mountainous area. what was extremely odd about this fossil is that it was an almost completely intact fossil of a whale. Whales in the mountains How did the whale get there?…
Overall, by using the fossil record created by finding dinosaurs similar to birds, Brusatte showed how dinosaurs underwent gradual evolution over a period of tens of millions of years to create the species we know today as…
These fossils are both interesting and amazing in all aspects of learning. It doesn’t matter if you're a history buff, a science buff, or even just normal person, these fossils will amaze all people of all ages. Kids especially can come to the museum and find it fun while also learning at the same time. The museum features a hands on science exhibit in which kids can actually do what they have read from the exhibits. Hands on learning is a key factor in teaching children nowadays especially with technology advancing as fast as it it, you have to keep…
Recently, scientists have discovered fossils of an extinct species of turtles that particularly have snouts as noses, similar to a pig. However, because of its snout, it was named Golden's bacon turtle, or Arvinachelys golden. Usually, turtles have one nasal passage in their skulls because of how fleshy their nostrils are. Arvinachelys golden was found by a team from Natural History Museum of Utah and discovered the fossil at the Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument. In addition, this turtle also had a near completed forelimb, partial hindlimbs, and vertebrae from the neck and tail, unlike any other turtle ever recorded.…
Fossils show us how animals change all the time, just not how they die. They also help us look into how the climate has changed and how they’ve migrated. Fossils are important to world discoveries. After…
Culture history told us where people lived, but archaeologists wanted to know more. How did they hunt? Which parts of the animal was consumed over others? Bones could give us this information. The new techniques that had developed during the culture history era, like radiocarbon dating, could be used to analyze bones and answer these…
But the main discovery came after the researchers analyzed anatomical features of the various fossils and compared them to the evolutionary tree. " That's when we saw the stages playing out," said…
Fossil Traces An empty clam shell, broken, was discovered by the person on the beach. How did this happen? Who did it? After careful observation, a seagull took the clam and dropped it from the sky about 33 feet high and about 3 times to break the clam. Was this an instance that only occurred from a sea gull in Florida?…
Croods Caveman, have always been something I was fascinated with watching documentaries about things they would find that could possible conclude cavemen actually existed. Findings of fossils have contributed to great discoveries among species. One unique fossil found was the Neanderthal. This fossil is considering the early human life formation, with having some traits of Homo sapiens species now. Upon being found in Germany around 1856 no one had ever seen anything in this nature.…
It they were of a creature nature then how is that animals that were oceanic were found on top of mountains? Besides the description of the great flood from the scriptures there had to be more of an explanation. With the passing of time there were many people, scientist that contributed their ideas to the understanding of fossils. Understood was the layers of the earth were different types of sediment founded by Steno.…
Each fossil we find helps us to see and understand how animals and plants have changed over time. However, there are still those nonbelievers who say that your theory, is just that … a theory: ideas intended to explain something. They believe that this is all just ideas you had come up with. But me … I’m a…
Millions of years ago, dinosaurs and cavemen made great carnage to Earth. Many folks today thought they were an incarnation of evil. Most cavemen were carnivorous mostly because they had to hunt more often and had no knowledge about farming and planting. However the dinosaurs were omnivorous’ they feed on anything they saw flowers, plants, bugs, cavemen, anything that looked like food they would eat it. Back then it was hard to find dinosaurs and cavemen that were herbivores simply because it was hard to be vegan 230 millions years ago but studies have shown that their were approximately 0.000001% of the dinosaur and cavemen population were vegan though.…
In the essay, “Evolution as Fact and Theory,” Stephen Gould defenses Charles Darwin’s theory of Evolution over the beliefs of creationist on God creating all organisms in the world. To further his support, he states his three arguments which are observational evidence, the imperfection of nature, and transitions found in fossil records to demonstrate that even though evolution is just a theory, there are plentiful evidence of facts that supports it. The essay was not just about justifying the theory of evolution to the creationist but also to reject the ideas of blindfolded views on scientific creationism. Throughout the essay, Gould acknowledges many of the major perspectives of the scientific world to support the theory of evolution that…
Since the first dinosaur bone was unearthed and mounted in a museum for the world to view, people have been fascinated by the gigantic ancient beasts that once ruled the world. Soon movies brought the dry dinosaur bones to life, featuring dinosaurs as the biggest villains of the film industry. America’s love affair with lost worlds, super-sized villains, and industry leading special effects, helped to make dinosaurs on the big screens biggest stars. Dinosaur movies have captivated our imagination, haunted our dreams and entertained Americans since the early days of film.…
