TPO-43 - Integrated Writing Task Agnostids were a group of marine animals that became extinct about 450 million years ago. Agnostid fossils can be found in rocks in many areas around the world. From the fossil remains, we know that agnostids were primitiv

The passage and lecture both discuss agnostids -- a group of marine animals that started to extinct many years ago.The reading claims that there are 3 different theories how agnostids may have lived. But the professor disagree with these theories.

First of all, the reading passage says that this kind of animals may have been free swimming predators that hunted smaller animals. The professor refutes this statement. The speaker says that agnostid's size of eyes is not typical for predators, their eyes were tiny; that is why agnostids could not be predators

Secondly, the text puts out that agnostids inhabit on the seafloor, and they survive by scavening dead animals. However, the speaker says that seafloor animals do not have abilities to move quickly, but agnostids moved fast; that is why they occupied a large area.

Last but not least, the reading points that agnostids were parasites, feeding off large organisms.The lecture denies this and talks that agnostids had a big population. It contradicts characteristic of parasites, because enormous population of parasites could hurt larger sea organisms.
