The reading and the writing both are about anthropodes named, Agnostids marine which were the relatives of modern insects. The author believes that it is difficult to inferred from fossils how they behave and what they eat to live life. So, he provides three theories how they were lived. The speaker challenges the statement made by the author. He is of opinion that none of the theory is convincing.
First of all, the article notes that Agnostid were free swimming predator and they were used to hunt on numerous small organisms to survive. However, the lecturer refutes the point by mentioning that swimming predators usually have well developed vision in order to prey. But, the eyes of Agnostids were poorly developed as well as no evidence of any other developed sensory organ in order to hunt on ocean organisms.
Secondly, the author suggests that they could be seafloor dwellers and survived by dead organism and grazing bacteria. The professor, on the other hand, is not agreed with the idea and he asserts that seafloor dwellers are not able to move quickly and cannot spread to other areas. Therefore, they usually live in a smaller geographic area rather than multiple geographic areas. Further, he mentions that agnostid were very fast and spread into different locations by contrast to seafloor dwellers. In this way, this theory is ruled out with erroneous assumption.
In the last it is stated that they could be exist as parasites and lived on primitive fishes and other animals. On the flip side, the lecturer argues that parasites exist in miniature number and plentiful parasite can kill the host. Moreover, he elaborates on this point that Agnostidts were enormous in number as compared to parasite population and so this predicted theory is not fitting in the frame.
