Summaries the points made in the lecture, being sure to explain how they case doubt on specific points made in the reading passage. Why edmontosaur migrated?

The reading and lecture are both about the existence edmontosaur, which the author of reading believes that there are some reasons which can prove the migration hypothesis. The lecture challenges the theory made by the author. The professor is of the opinion that these reasons are not convincing.

First of all, the author suggests that the edmontosaur forced to migrate to more temperate zones for finding foods. This idea is challenged by the lecture. She says that summer temperatures in the North Slope area were warmer than today, therefore, conditions were suitable for plants growing. Furthermore, she argues that sun shines 24 hours a day at the peak of the summer, so much more vegetation was produced, then they died in the winter, but edmontosaurs could alive on dead plants matter.

Secondly, the writer contends that many skeletons have been discovered that shows edmontosaur lived in herd ant it can demonstrate that edmontosaur migrated at that time. The lecture, however, rebuts this by asserting that living in herds provides other things for animals such as protection from predators. She elaborates on this by mentioning that living with this style does not mean the edmontosaur migrated because some animals like Roosevelt elk populations live in a herd, but they do not migrate.

Finally, it is stated in the article that edmontosaurs were able to migrate for long distances. The lecture, on the other hand, posits that adult edmontosaurs had this ability, but juveniles could not run for great distances to reach warmer places because they had not physically capable.
