TPO 29
The lecturer and the reading discuss how dinosaurs lived on the North Slope. Although the passage claims that the Edmontosaurus was migrating to the warmer place in every winter, the speaker refutes this idea through several reasons which I will describe in this reporter.
First and foremost, the passage points out that the Edmontosaurus eat especially plants; hence, they had to migrate to finding food in winter. The lecturer, in contrast, rejects this by claiming that it is not true the North Slope did not have a plant in the winter and the Edmontosaurs did not have food during winter. She explains that in 1000 years ago the North Slope is warmer than now, and, the sunshine arrived at the earth 24h day. Therefore, warmer temperature and extremely light make a suitable situation for growing plants in summer. With starting winter, these plants died and they had a lot of nutritions. The Edmontosaurus started to eat dead planets in hole winter. Hence, they did not need to migrate to finding food.
Furthermore, unlike the passage which states that the Edmontosaurus lived in herb for migration, the professor argues that living in the herb did not mean they wanted to migration. They lived in herbs for several reasons such as provide extra protection from preditors. In the modern era, we sea Rozelt elk live in the herb in the forest of USA. But they do not migrate.
Finally, although the reading passage says that the Edmontosaurus had physical ability for migration, the speaker disagrees by mentioning that it is true they had physical ability for migration if they did not have children. She also adds that Edmontosaurus could not leave the juveniles in the migration because they would not survive alone. Consequently, it was not possible for Edmontosaurus to migrate such distances
