1. What exactly was on my t-shirt
that I wore on Friday, Oct 26?
2. Explain what L Neill Smith
said.
3. Describe the animal in the
joke.
4. A recent discovery has found
that Ornithomimus
probably had unusual features. Describe them and state what they were used for.
5. How big was the thing that slammed
into the Earth 65 million years ago and what was the effect on the Earth?
Good Luck,
Mr A
1. it had a dinosaur on it.
ReplyDeleteneha
3. big and fat. the door wont close because it is so big
ReplyDeleteneha
Neha, #1 be specific.
ReplyDelete#3 describe it!!!
Mr A
5. A comet or asteroid. Scientists think that thats why the dinosaurs died.
ReplyDeleteneha
5.10 km in diameter and it hit with 100 million megatons of force
ReplyDeleteneha
2. This planet is 15 million years overdue for an asteroid strike like the one that killed the dinosaurs.
ReplyDeleteneha
1. trex or Tyrannosaurusrex
ReplyDeleteneha
3. a stegosaurus is spiked tail and series of large triangular bony plates along the back.

Neha, #5 not exactly and read the question.
ReplyDeleteI'll give you #2=1 point.And #1,and #3
Thats 3 points Neha.
Mr A
5. aprox 180 km in diameter and 10 km deep
ReplyDeleteloss of dinosaurs - along with 90% of the earth's biomass perished.
neha
4.Very long limbs, hollow bones, and a large brain, portions of the brain were dedicated to kinesthetic coordination, hands are sloth-like in appearance, leaving some scientists to suggest that they were used to hook branches during feeding.
ReplyDeleteNeha
5)the astroid was 10km in diameter and the effects were that 80% of all life on earth became extinct and since the astroid hit a sea 90% of all plankton species in the sea died
ReplyDelete4) Ornithomimus is a genus of ornithomimid dinosaur its features are long slender arms, a long neck, a toothless beaked skull, long limbs, hollow bones a large brain and large eyes. the arms were used to hook branches during feeding. and Ornithomimus was a theropod and one of the smartest of the dinosaurs. they were structured to keep an eye out for predators. They were covered in feathers and resembled an ostrich. They had a small toothless beaked head and were omnivorous.
ReplyDeleteNeha and Diti---#4, Diti you had best answer but its not fully answered---read the question.
ReplyDelete#5 Both almost right but not the size.
Mr A
5. 10km across, slammed into the surface. It exploded into a fireball hotter than the sun, vaporising the ocean and excavating a crater 180km wide. More than 100 trillion tonnes of molten rock was blasted into space, landing all round the globe.
ReplyDeleteNeha
4. Long slender arms: to hook on to branches whilst feeding
ReplyDeletelong neck: could see over cover and see other dinosaurs approaching from a long way off which would make sneaking up difficult
Big Brain: Using kineskethic coodenation
larger eyes: This shows that Ornithomimus would have had keen vision, possibly even for seeing at night
The arms of Ornithomimus are also quite long with long fingers to match. If Ornithomimus raided nests for eggs as has been suggested in the past, then it may have held onto eggs within its hands while the beak-like mouth broke the shell.
Neha
Neha, nice try. What are your references for 10km in #5?
ReplyDelete#4, very recent news on interesting features for this dino and possible reasons for them.
Mr A
5. the NASA website.
ReplyDeleteDo i get a point for number 4?
Neha
Good Neha, NASA has a different size asteroid to my source so I'll give you #5.
ReplyDeleteOnly #4 left.

Correct Neha.
