The article and the lecture are both about endotherms, and incorporates their respective reasoning whether dinosaurs were endotherms or not. The author of the analytical piece suggests that there are considerable evidences which states that dinosaurs were endotherms. However, the professor casts doubt on each of the claims presented by the author. She states that the author's proposition is based on several unconscionable assumptions, and calling dinosaurs as endotherms is purely injudicious.
To begin with, the author claims that animals could be active only if they can maintain body temperature higher than their surroundings. He notes that dinosaur fossils in Polar Regions is the evidence that they hold this great characteristic of endotherms. The point is challenged by the professor. She states that the fossils found in Polar Regions were relatively warmer, warm enough for any of the non-endotherms present at that time. Furthermore, she points out that dinosaurs could have migrated to warmer regions during cold weathers or even hibernated for the entire season so as to remain alive.
In addition, the author states that the physiology of endothermy allows physical activities like running. He argues that as dinosaur's legs were positioned below their body, they must have used them for running purpose. However, the professor rebuts this argument. She suggests that the dinosaurs may are characterized with their large legs to support their own weight. She notes that the legs could have been advantageous for their large bodies in tasks other than running.
Finally, the author mentions that dinosaur's bones include structures called Haversian canals which allow them grow quickly; rapid body growth being a characteristic of endothermy. The professor, on the other hand, puts forth the idea that those bones also include growth rings which is the reason behind animals' slow growth during cold periods. She adds that variation in growth (rapid during warm, and slow during cold weathers) is not a characteristic of endotherms.
In conclusion, the professor effectively refutes each of the claims and theories presented in the passage.
