TPO43 Integrated Writing

In the reading passage, the author lists out three theories about how agnostics may have lived. However, the speaker in the lecture disagrees with these theories and thinks all of them have serious weaknesses.
First, even though the author indicates that the agnostics may be free-swimming predators since their primitive arthropods were active predators, the speaker gives convincing evidence to refute this idea. Different from the arthropods which had well-developed eyes to track and catch their preys, according to the fossils, the agnostids have tiny and poorly-developed eyes and are almost blind. Therefore, the speaker thinks the evidence ruins out the theory entirely.
Secondly, the author indicates the theory that agnostids may be seafloor dwellers because other types of primitive arthropods lived in this way. Nevertheless, the speaker asserts that the seafloor dwellers usually move slowly and occupy in certain regional areas, however, the fossils of agnostids have been discovered in multiple regions which are far from a considerable distance. As a result, the speaker believes that the agnostids were unlikely seafloor dwellers.
Lastly, according to the reading, the agnostids are possible as parasites since many species of modern-day arthropods are parasites. On the contrary, the speaker disagrees with this idea. The populations of parasites would typically stay in certain limited since other parasites would compete to organisms on which they live. However, the fossils of different species agnostids have been found in vast amount. Therefore, the speaker considers that the evidence disproves the theory.
