The reading passage and the lecture are both about a marine animal called Agnostide, which became extinct many years ago. More specifically, the writer discusses they looked like some modern insects, but there are no firm witnesses to prove their exact behaviors. The lecturer in the listening passage disagrees with all mentioned hypotheses in the reading and provides some evidence to refute them.
First of all, the author begins by stating that the agnostids could have been in the category of free-swimming predators as long as they were vigorous swimmers. The lecturer, however, disagrees. He declares that the free-swimming predators possess well-developed eyesight in order to find their preys, but the agnostids had weak eyes which were virtually blind. Therefore, it is not possible for them the ability to search for food in the open oceans.
Furthermore, the author claims that the agnostids may have attributed to the seafloor dwellers, which they are a type of initial arthropods feed on the dead organisms or bacteria. Again, the lecturer believes there are some flaws in the writer's argument. The speaker holds that these kinds of dwellers are not able to move very agile and within long distances. Actually, they mostly localize their environment and live in a small area. In contrast, the agnostids dwelled in a large extent with the power of fast movement; thus, they could transfer to the far distances.
Lastly, the article mentioned that another possibility attributed to agnostids which they were parasites like some entity animals. These species feed on the larger organisms. In turn, the professor in the listening passage is doubtful that this is accurate. He states that parasites animals naturally do not exist in a vast population. Conversely, the agnostids dwelled in the populated area. By considering this fact, this theory rules out the approach of agnostids.
