The main idea of both the reading and the talk is Sinosauropterix. Considering this, the author claims that this kind of dinosaur was not feathered. The professor, on the other hand, categorically denies whatever mentioned in the passage through providing three reasons.
First, the author states that the fine lines are a structure that were formed after the animal's death and do not show the functional structure of a living dinosaur. The lecturer, nevertheless, rejects the author's view and illustrates that these lines are unlikely to result in decomposition of skin because they have not been seen in other animals burying on the same site. Furthermore, the feather of some animals has been well preserved in volcanic ash, so it does not indicate the fiber.
Second, the reading highlights that scientists cannot tell that the structures were what part of the anatomy and it might be part of frill. However, the professor asserts that there is a difference between feather and frill. She provides the results of recent experiments that have shown fine lines have beta-keratin which is a substance that can be found only in feather, no-frill. Thus the presence of beta-keratin is another indicator of the feather.
Finally, the author argues that feathers helped animals fly or regulate their internal temperature but the structure represented by the lines located along the backbone and the tail of the animal. Nonetheless, the lecturer rejects this idea, saying that feathers sometimes have functions apart from flying or internal temperature control. She uses the example of one species of birds that utilizes its feathers for attracting its mate. Analyzing the structure of fine lines has shown that the dinosaur uses its orange and white feathers for display.
