1. Identify this specimen
2. Which order do these teeth belong to?
3. Where is a major graveyard of this specimen?
4. What was a common misconception about this genus that was recently (in term of geologic time...lol) busted?
5. What does this specimen's name mean?
6. True or False, this genus had feathers.
7. True or False, this genus was the 2nd dinosaur in space.

This is a lot but they can always do this to you.

Genus Deinonychus, Order Saurischia, New Mexico, They didn't have feathers (misconception), terrible claw, True, False (I have no idea, but that was a little bit random)

[varunscs11]

Sorry half of those answers are right. And Deinonychus had feathers.

[varunscs11]

The graveyard question should have given the answer away.

Sorry half of those answers are right. And Deinonychus had feathers.

Ahem, Case A: The misconception was that they didn't have feathers, Case B: I answered True to "this genus had feathers." I rest my case.

I'm guessing #7 was wrong

1) Identify 1a) Class, 1b) Genus, 1c) Common Name, 1d) Mode of Life

2) Identify 2a) Phylum, 2b) Genus, 2c) Mode of Life
3) Compare and Contrast members of 1a) and 2a)

[varunscs11]

This is the answer (Click to Show Hidden Text)

1a) Bivalvia 1b) Pholadomya 1c) Piddock Clam is what it means, Gaper Clam is informal ID 1d) Suspension feeder (filter feeder), Benthic/Epifaunal
2a) Brachiopoda 2b) Mucrospirifer 2c) epifaunal/benthic suspension feeder/filter feeder
3) Specimen 1 belongs to Bivalvia meaning that both valves are symmetrical and this specimen has symmetry through the valves meaning the line of symmetry is where the sagittal line is. Also Bivalves use siphons to feed while Brachiopods use lophophores to feed. Brachiopod valves are unequal and therefore not symmetrical and the line of symmetry is where you would cut one valve in half.

Oh the answers for my question were Coelophysis, Saurischia, Ghost Ranch New Mexico, It was thought that Coelophysis' were cannibals, Hollow Form True, True (was aboard STS-89, 1st Dino in space was Maisaura). You got Saurischia, New Mexico, True for feathers, so 3/7

I DO need to work on my dinos.
Gaper clam is a WAY different species, Tresus capax. It's actually Paper clam.
I think it's infaunal but whatever.
Not Mucrospirifer, it's actually Genus Platystrophia/Vinlandostrophia. Of course, the mode of life is right because most brachiopods have the same mode of life. 3), of course, is correct. Your turn!

Are you sure it's paper clam because my book says its a gaper clam
