tpo 43 the agnostids

The material discusses how agnostids ate and lived. While the reading claims three theories to explain that, the listening disagrees and mentions that all three theories have serious weaknesses.

First, the author states that agnostids were free-swimming hunters like other primitive arthropods. On the other hand, the professor opposes this and posits that arthropods which were strong predators had large and well-developed eyes because vision is very crucial to hunt tiny animals. However, the lecturer adds that agnostids had very tiny and poorly developed eyes and some of them were completely blind. The speaker explains that if they had the ability tho chase other animals, they should have other special organs, but there is no evidence for that.

Second, the writer states that agnostids were seafloor dwellers. On the contrary, the lecturer challenges this and contends that usually seafloor dwellers do not have the ability to move fast and far. The professor explains that they move slowly, so they stay localized and occupy small geographic areas. Nevertheless, the speaker says that agnostids were found in multiple geographic areas, and there is a large distance between one area and others. The professor states that they moved fast from one area to another one, which is unusual for seafloor dwellers.

Third, the reading mentions that agnostids were parasites. Conversely, the professor contradicts this and cits that the parasites' population should not be large, but they have to stay on a certain limit. The lecturer explains that if they are too many, they could kill the host. The speaker adds that agnostids populations were very large, and from each species there were a vast amount of fossils. The lecturer concludes that this information roul out that agnostids were parasites.
