Did one single disaster cause the K-T extinctions? Some scientists and people are committed to just one reason the K-T extinctions occurred but in this paper many possibilities will be explored with evidence to back up why they could have been a cause as well to the extinctions. Everyone will ultimately make his or her own decision/thoughts on what could have happened, and of course all hypotheses would be subject to analysis. Asteroid impact theory. The impact of a 10 km+ asteroid would blow a…
creatures since most of the area of Texas property was largerly underwater. Few are vertibrae, which means having a vertibral or spinal column. Some turtles, fish and other animals are discovered. And within seven miles of Texas property, is the Dinosaur State Park located in Glen Rose, TX where tracks in the Paluxy River are very…

“It’s the first permanent museum exhibit to trace mammal evolution – from the extinction of large dinosaurs to the rise of humans – within the context of epochal changes in the Earth’s geology and climate.” That is the summary Dr. John Harris, lead curator for the Age of Mammals exhibit at the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles, gives about the exhibit. While to some, this description may seem vague, the museum sees it as a way of focusing on “telling a more complicated, ‘big picture story’…
that dinosaurs had feather and the food pyramid was getting confusing. That is wierd how the food pyramid can confusing. Also what we encountered with strange animals. I get this text form two articles “The Explosion In What We Know About life Forms. Also another article called “ The Half-Life of Facts. The dinosaur had feather. Also the food pyramid is getting confusing. People have stated that the food pyramid have been changing over the time. Therefor people also stated that dinosaurs had…
million years ago, that wiped the dinosaurs off the face of the Earth? Asteroids can range from the size of a small rock, to the size of a dwarf-planet. “Currently, the largest asteroids listed to date primarily reside…
• I could just as easily have said, "a subject I had some knowledge in", or, "a subject I had some knowledge of". I suppose the main thing I've noticed is, thinking whether you are talking in the present or the past tense, for example as you have said, "on the final of the sentences", we would tend to say, "on the end of sentences", or, "on the end of the sentence". So we don't just make plural by putting an 's' on the end of the word, we also add a 'the' in front of the singular. You are making…
After dinosaurs went extinct about 65 million years ago, mammals began to evolve and diversify into new niches. In order to understand and disentangle this convoluted history of mammals, paleontologists narrowed the focus of their studies to horse because horse evolution occurred approximately at around 55 million years ago, and their fossil record is highly rich in details. In the next several paragraphs, we will discuss the morphological changes in horse from the Eocene epoch to the Holocene…
Imagine finding fossils of an undiscovered sauropod while adventuring with some friends. Well that is what happened to Elmer S. Riggs. He discovered the first fossils of the Brachiosaurus. In 1900, Riggs found a partial skeleton of a Brachiosaurus in the rocks of the Brushy Basin Membrane of the Morrison Formation. The fossils were studied and information on this species was revealed. Brachiosaurs lived in the late Jurassic period, which was about 145 to 156 million years ago. The Jurassic…
meteorite which impacted the earth was likely to be the main reason causing the extinction of dinosaurs. When I asked Changlong Shi that if human beings would be extinct due to a meteorite in the future, his answer was “No.” He argues that although a serious dystopia will come after a meteorite hits the earth, the human being will not be extinct due to technology (Shi). He explains that compared to dinosaurs, human beings have developed advanced technology, which is the strong guarantee of the…
