tpo 24

The reading and the lecture both address about a 70-million-year-old fossil of Tyrannosaurus rex. The author discusses the evidence of remains of blood vessels, red blood cells and collagen matrix in the T.rex's leg bone. The lecture casts doubt on the claims made in the article.

First of all, the author points out that there was a soft organic substance inside the channels and this substance may represent the relics of actual blood vessels of T.rex. The lecture challenges this point by mentioning that it is true that there was a soft substance; however, this substance left by bacterial colonies.
Secondly, the author states that the spheres contain iron and dark red centers with the size of red blood cell. The lecture rebuts this argument by explaining that the origin of the spheres were not red blood cells, but there were pieces of the reddish materials. Furthermore, the lecture says that the iron filled spheres found in animals with no red blood cells.

Lastly, the author states that the scientists found collagen, is a fibrous protein, in the dinosaur leg bone. The author says that collagen is the main component of living bone tissues. The lecture, on the other hand, posits that collagen did not come from the T.rex, but the collagen may remain from the human skin who handling the bone.
