Stuff that might be right (Click to Show Hidden Text)

1. Plateosaurus
2. Triassic
3. Not sure what else lived in the time period...
4. "Broad lizard"
5. Stood on it's hind legs?

You need to study more

1. Iguanodon
2. Cretaceous?
3. Probably only Tyrannosaurus, since they lived in groups.
5. Umm... originally scientists thought the horn was on it's head (almost common knowledge by now :P ). Can't think of anything else off the top of my head.

1. Genus
2. Time period
3. What specimen on the list could have preyed on this?
4. What does its name mean?
5. Two interesting facts

1. Stegosaurus
2.Jurassic
3. Allosaurus
4. Roof lizard
5. The spiked tail is called a thagomizer which comes from Gary Larson's "The Far Side" (I would NEVER miss this LOL) and Stegosaurus had a second brain that controlled reflexes. Also there is one specimen in the USNM that is called the "road kill" specimen because it looks like it was run over

varunscs11 wrote:What is the difference between protosomes and deuterosomes? Names some groups from the list that are protosomes. Do the same for deuterosomes

protosomes: blastopore forms into the mouth (e.g. mollusca, arthropoda)
deuterosomes: blastopore forms into the anus (e.g. echinodermata, chordata, hemichordata)
