The reading article talks about the animal tissues found in the T.Rex fossil recently found along with the supporting details about the discovery of tissues. The lecture disagrees with the details mentioned in the passage and suggests there is not enough evidence to hold those details true.
First, the reading article points out that, broken bone of T.Rex revealed channels for blood vessels and the soft material found could be actual blood vessels. The lecture counters this theory and states that, it is highly unlikely to have blood vessels preserved for millions of years. Usually bacteria colonize the bones and leave behind traces of organic material. The soft and moist substance could be the residue left by bacterial activity.
Next, the reading passage argues that, microscopic examination revealed presence of spheres similar to red blood cells. Tests showed Iron is present, which is crucial for Oxygen transportation. However, the lecture refutes the claim and points out that, the same spheres were found in fossils of other animals, especially primitive animals which did not have red blood cells. There is a high chance the spheres are of any reddish mineral.
Lastly, the reading talks about, tests conducted on T. Rex leg bone showed presence of collagen- a fibrous protein. It is usually found in bone tissues. The lecture argues that, Collagen is found in fossils which are not older than 1000 years. It is impossible to find Collagen in 70 million years old fossil of T.Rex. Moreover, the professor adds that, human skin contains Collagen and the Collagen found could be of researchers’ handling the bones.
In conclusion, the lecture refuses all the claims presented in the reading article and states that it is highly unlikely that the bones have preserved animal tissues.
- TPO-24 - Integrated Writing Task Animal fossils usually provide very little opportunity to study the actual animal tissues, because in fossils the animals' living tissues have been largely replaced by minerals. Thus, scientists were very excited recently 81
