The lecturer disputes the author's suggested claims that bees nest existed 200 million years ago. He provides three concrete reasons to cast doubt about the author's claims.
First, according to the author fossils of bees did not exist 200 millions years ago because the earliest bees fossils are dated only 120 years ago. However, the lecturer finds this idea debatable. He contends that indeed fossils may have existed, but because of the absence of trees raisins which act as a preservative to protect the nest structure, it might have been destroyed over time.
Second, the lecturer contradict the fallacy of the passage that since flowering plants did not exist in that period of time, it is unlikely the nests fossils did exist either because bees feed on flowering plants. However, The lecturer argues that theoretically speaking, they may have existed because fossil of pine and fern trees were discovered, it is possible that these plant have evolved later in time to flowering trees. Thus, food may have been available.
Finally, the author claims that bees nests lack some important details in their structure like the caps. Again, the lecturer refutes these claims by stating that it is possible that the material which protects the nests from the damaging water effect may have been missing. He states this may alter the nest structure.
