Feathered dinosaurs

Each one of these stories had dangerous things that the people or person encountered. Do you think you could survive being attacked by a dinosaur or a crocodile? Both stories, ‘’A Sound of Thunder and ‘’Being Prey’’ both had an experience with a dangerous reptile. Would you be up for the challenge? The setting in each of these stories were ‘’relatably’’ different. They each had to do with some sort of dangerous reptile. In ‘’Being Prey’’ the setting was in present day – in a swamp. This is…

Sound Of Thunder” Everyone dreams of going back in time and experiencing the past, but is it really worth it? “A Sound of Thunder,” by Ray Bradbury, is an intriguing science fiction short story that brings us back to the past to experience the dinosaurs. The action and drama in this story really showed off the theme of the story. Ray Bradbury created a plot, conflict, and theme that made it over all a compelling read. The plot of “A Sound of Thunder” is a thrilling adventure of time travel…

at a rate that is similar to those of preceding mass extinctions. Most importantly, if the destruction and contamination of the natural world continue at the same pace then it will conclude with the end of humanity. Similar to the extinction of dinosaurs 65 million years ago, Kolbert believes that a continual course of modern day life with destroy the earth. The sixth extinction is not something that is coming in the future, it is here now. Many of the earth’s plant and animal species have…

Some examples of macroevolution include the impact that mass extinctions have on the diversity of life, the appearance of terrestrial vertebrates through speciation, and the basis of key adaptations. An example of this is flight in birds. Another example of macroevolution is a species named Primula kewensis, which came into existence because of the crossbreeding of two hybrid primrose species, Primula verticillata and Primula floribunda. Sedimentary rocks We do not know the actual, or…

about age, sex, reason of death, are dinosaurs cold or warm blooded animals etc. in this documentary. They might be right about the predictions that they made during that time…

• 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…

Sixty-five million years ago, dinosaurs like the tyrannosaurus rex and the triceratops once roamed the Earth. Suddenly all these great creatures disappeared and it’s not quite sure how they vanished from existence. There are several theories to explain what is known to be the most popular mass extinction of all time. Asteroid The belief that an asteroid struck the planet earth is the most common and most believed theory. This theory has more evidence to back it up than just a giant rock…

As the Earth goes through time, we began to see that the species that were developing were slowly evolving into the modern day turtles that we see now. They began to lose their rough scaly shell with the N. argentina and the N.oweni and began to develop a more smooth texture, needed for swimming. This is where we discover the genus Meiolania (“small roamer”). The species within Meiolania have been known to be on earth until about 2000-3000 years ago living between the Oligocene-Holocene eras and…

The biggest question about dinosaurs today is “How did they die?” “There is nothing like a bold new hypothesis to galvanize scientists into reaction and then action.”(Wilford, John Noble.) Many scientists have created new theories and hypothesize, some have been backed up with evidence while others are pure imagination. The first and most evidence backed theory is called the K-T event theory. This theory was created by a father and son duo Luis and Walter Alvarez. “In the 1980s, father-and-son…

There were several kinds of giant sloths in South America in the Pleistocene era around 500,000 years ago, and living alongside them were giant armadillos like the glyptodonts. They were as big as rhinoceroses, with armour-plating fitted so tightly together that they looked like huge tortoises. All of these giants were edentata, an order of animals which has evolved into today’s sloths, armadillos and anteaters of South America. Edentata literally means without teeth. The anteaters, which catch…
