Endotherms are animals such as modern birds and mammals that keep their body temperatures constant. For instance, humans are endotherms and maintain an internal temperature of 37°C, no matter whether the environment is warm or cold. Because dinosaurs were reptiles, and modern reptiles are not endotherms, it was long assumed that dinosaurs were not endotherms. However, dinosaurs differ in many ways from modem reptiles, and there is now considerable evidence that dinosaurs were, in fact, endotherms.
Polar dinosaurs
One reason for believing that dinosaurs were endotherms is that dinosaur fossils have been discovered in Polar Regions. Only animals that can maintain a temperature well above that of the surrounding environment could be active in such cold climates.
Leg position and movement
There is a connection between endothermy and the position and movement of the legs. The physiology of endothermy allows sustained physical activity, such as running. But running is efficient only if an animal's legs are positioned underneath its body, not at the body's side, as they are for crocodiles and many lizards. The legs of all modern endotherms are underneath the body, and so were the legs of dinosaurs. This strongly suggests that dinosaurs were endotherms.
Haversian canals
There is also a connection between endothermy and bone structure. The bones of endotherms usually include structures called Haversian canals. These canals house nerves and blood vessels that allow the living animal to grow quickly, and rapid body growth is in fact a characteristic of endothermy. The presence of Haversian canals in bone is a strong indicator that the animal is an endotherm, and fossilized bones of dinosaurs are usually dense with Haversian canals.
The article states that dinosaurs are endotherms and provide three reasons of support. However, the professor explains that many scientists have problem with this idea in cannot prove this and refutes each of the author's reasons.
First, the reading claims that the fossil of the dinosaurs are found in Polar Regions and only if they could maintain in a temperature well above their environment they could survive and so they were endotherms. The professor refutes this point by saying that the environment where the fossils are found were warmer in that days and so they could live in that warm place. He states that it is possible that they migrated to warmer places and they could hibernate.
Second, the article posits that the legs of endotherm animals are underneath their body so as the dinosaurs. However, the professor says that it is not necessarily for help them to be more active. Dinosaurs were really heavy and to move their large body, they need a strong leg beneath their body .According to professor they have the leg under their body cannot prove that they were endotherm.
Third, The reading says that the bone structure of the dinosaurs are like endotherm and it includes Haversian canals and the presence of them can prove the idea that they were endotherm. The professor opposes this point by explaining that they may had haversian canals but it is for helping them to grow faster or slower or also to stop that.We also learn the dinosaurs could grow fast in cool areas.
