A massive skeleton of the Tyrannosaurus stands tall a few feet from the entrance making it the first thing you see when you walk in. It looks about as tall as two stories of a building.

Title Researchers and scientists have constructed extensive research on dinosaur’s extinction. Speculation instead of real evidence seems common in most theories about the dinosaurs’ extinction. However, Jay Gould’s essay “Sex, Drugs, and the Extinction of Dinosaurs” is the complete opposite of speculation over evidence. Rather, Gould uses the mix of persuasive techniques, such as rhetorical questions, logos, along with profound evidence to not only disapprove of other theories but convince readers

That quote shows just a little bit of how the story gets exciting and thrilling. The author uses both the suspense and the thrilling aspect to convey his theme. The short story, “A Sound

This article stood out to me because I used to want to be a Paleontologist and I am also a big fan of the Jurassic Park movies.

A recent discovery showed that the real Velociraptor was a lapdog-sized predator covered in feathers. In Jurassic park the velociraptors are shown as raptors that are bigger than humans and have a rough scaly skin. If you look at the arm bones of Velociraptor you

The T-Rex appearance is a misconception While in the movie Jurassic Park for the time it was accurate but over time it has become outdated. Now in 2023 the show Prehistoric Planet shows the most accurate version of the T-rex yet. Did the T-Rex have feathers? At a younger age it most likely would have had feathers but as an adult it would have been a disadvantage. It wouldn’t have feathers because it’s way too big and its body would generate a ton of heat. In the Cretaceous period the average temperature
adaptation of this effect comes about as a result of the fixed imagery in where the audience reads different emotions from the characters depending on the text and context surrounding them. This effect is most pronounced in the first two panels where Tyrannosaurus is introduced and a dramatic close-up occurs in the next panel , both panels are semi-ambiguous in the displayed emotion, this is the clearest parallel to the film version of the effect.
