summarize the points made in the lecture, being sure to explain how they challenge the points that what might have caused the odd sounds mentioned in the reading passage
In the reading passage, the author discusses several theories about what might have caused the sounds quackers that have been detected in the North Alantic and Arctic Ocean, while the lecture claims that what the passage state is not convincing and disputes those ideas presented in the passage with several proofs.
Firstly, according to the reading passage, it is suggested that the strange moises were actually the calls of male and female orac whales during a coyrtship ritual because the sounds they make when trying to attract a male are similar to those that the submarines were detecting. In contrast, the professor argues in the lecture that the sounds from the orca whales are plausible. The orca whales always live in the surface of the ocean, the submarines could not hear sounds made by them because submarines typically deep in the ocean. Moreover, the submarines could detect the orca whales if there were any nearby.
In addition, the statment in the reading material indicates that the sounds were caused by giant squid since they are living deep in the ocean and difficult to detect by sonar due to the fact that they have no skeleton. On the contrary, the professor points out that the sounds were found at 1960 and reported by the submarine two decades, however they suddenly disapperaed at 1980. If the giant squid made that sounds, how would be possible that they made the sounds and stopped 20 years later.
Finally, the author of the reading claims that the strange froglike sounds may come from another country's submarines that they were secretly patrolling the area and did not register on sonar. However, the speaker argues that the submarines that come from another country may not move quickly and constantly change their direction as the scources of the sounds due to technological limitations. What is more, all submarines make engine noise, but there were no such noise in 'quackers'. Therefore, the foreign submarine theory also fails to hold this point.
