Edmontoosaurs Migrate
The passage thinks that edmontoosaurs migrated south to survive the winter. Meanwhile, the pofesser says that they didn't migrate. First of all, the author states that this kind of dinosaur mainly ate plants which could not live during winter, so they have to migrate to find food. But the lectrue argues that it was warmer at that time. There was 24 hours of sunlight during summer, so there were many plants. In winter, there were many dead plants containing many nutritions which could be eaten by this kind of dinosaur, so that they did not have to move to warmer places. In addition, the passage says that edmotosaur skeletons show that they lived in herd, which helps animals coordinate their migration. But the pofesser does not think so.

    Were dinosaurs warm or cold blooded has been a long time debated issue. Scientist believe dinosaurs were much like modern day reptiles, cold blooded, and others believe dinosaurs were much like mammals and others birds, warm blooded.

    There are many theories on how dinosaurs became extinct but scientists have not yet found a proven reason why. About sixty-five million years ago Dinosauriformes, or as we call them Dinosaurs, walked and roamed planet Earth. These massive carnivores, herbivores, and omnivores lived many years on earth before humans appeared. There were several variations of dinosaurs such as land, sea, and air dinosaurs. For a millions of years the dinosaurs thrived in their environment. They had an abundant food supply to eat and they had ample space to roam and reproduce offspring. Unfortunately the dinosaurs did not last forever since they all mysteriously became extinct. Three of the main theories on how dinosaurs became extinct are climate changes, an asteroid impact, and massive volcanos erupting.…
