TPO 4

The article states that dinisaurs were endotherms and provides three reasons of support. However, the professor explains that there are problems with this argument and refutes each of the author's reasons.

First, the reading claims that the dinosaur fossils that have been found in polar regions shows that dinosaurs were endotherms. The professor refutes this point by saying that in their times polar regions were warmer than other areas and it migh that dinosaurs migrate to polar regions. So, finding their fossils there can't prove that dinosaurs were endotherms.

Second, the article posits that dinosaurs leg position and movement is similar to other endotherms. The professor explains that there is an other explaination for this similarity. According to the professor, this leg position support more weight for dinosaurs. Benig larg is an advantage for them.

Finally, the reading says that dinosaurs bone stucture is an other support for its theory. The professor opposes this point by saying that dinosaurs had different growth rate. In some times they grow fast and sometimes grow slowly and may not grow. This variety of growth speed is responsible for this bone structure and it is not one the endotherms animals features.
