What kind of dinosaurs live in the mesozoic era?

The Mesozoic era is divided into three periods Triassic, Jurassic and Cretaceous. During the early Triassic, corals appeared. Seed plants dominated the land, in the northern hemisphere, conifers flourished. Glossopteris was the dominant southern hemisphere tree during the Triassic period. Many new dinosaurs appeared during the Jurassic period. Giant plant eating dinosaurs dominated the Earth. carnivores such as Allosaurus and Composognathus were plentiful. Many bird-like dinosaurs also thrived during this period. The Cretaceous period saw the heyday of the dinosaurs. Many new species of dinosaurs evolved during this period. New dinosaurs such as, the deadly t-rex and the extremely large Giganotosaurus appeared for the first time as did Triceratops and many others.


Is there evidence that dinosaurs really did live?

Yes there is evidence of Mesozoic dinosaurs in the form of fossilised bones of hundreds of clades, ranging from embryos to adult, eggs, coprolites and trackways. There are dinosaurs living today, the birds which are theropod dinosaurs. There is overwhelming evidence that birds derived from dinosaurs. There are now many fossils that show many types dinosaurs had feathers.

Did most dinosaurs live in deserts?

No, that is not the case. There were many land habitats during the Mesozoic, and dinosaurs lived in all of them. They first evolved in Pangaea during the Triassic, when almost all land was a desert. After that, however, they evolved into new forms and adapted to new habitats that developed, including forests, swamps, floodplains, and plains covered in ferns (there were no grasslands during the Mesozoic).


Are there any dinosaurs left in the world?

What is the most successful during the Mesizoic era?

Dinosaurs were the most successful group of animals during the Mesozoic era, dominating terrestrial ecosystems for millions of years. They evolved into a diverse range of shapes and sizes and were the top predators in many environments. The Mesozoic era also saw the rise of flowering plants and the expansion of marine reptiles.


What vertebrate did not live during the time of the dinosaurs?

The modern-day mammal, specifically the placental mammals, did not live during the time of the dinosaurs. While some early mammals existed during the Mesozoic Era, they were small and not the diverse group we see today. The major diversification of placental mammals occurred after the dinosaurs went extinct around 66 million years ago. Thus, many of the mammals we are familiar with today emerged long after the age of dinosaurs had ended.


What led to dwarfism in Romanian dinosaurs?

During the Mesozoic, Europe, including Romania, was mostly submerged by a shallow sea. What land was left was broken into islands, many of which were small. Dinosaurs adapted to surviving on small islands by shrinking over many generations, so that they didn't deplete the limited food resources available to them.
