Many dinosaurs had feathers as their main body covering, rather than scales and evidence suggests that at least some dinosaurs were warm-blooded. Like birds, dinosaurs walked with their legs directly beneath their bodies while the legs of modern reptiles sick out to the sides.
What else can I help you with?
How might dinosaurs have beeen more like birds and unlike reptiles?
Well, most paleontologists think that because alot of raptor type dinosaurs stood like birds. There was also some evidence of feathered-dinosaurs, that looked like birds.
What are dinosours related to?
Pterosaurs were closely related to the dinosaurs. Because birds have descended from dinosaurs, the closest living relatives of pterosaurs are birds. All birds are equally related to pterosaurs.
Why are dinosaurs considered the ancestors of modern birds if they were cold blooded?
How are you so certain that they were cold-blooded (ectothermic)? In reality that was nothing more than an asumption made by early scientists when they at first noticed their resemblance to reptiles. It is true that dinosaurs evolved from reptiles but so did mammals! It is quite possible that dinosaurs were the first animals to develop warm blood (endothermic) and since scientists have gather a lot of evidence to suggest that birds evolved from dinosaurs, then is possible that that is where the birds got their ability to regulate their internal temperature. What evidences? See the answer below.AnswerMany dinosaurs have a similar bone structure to that of birds. It has been proved that dinosaur bones (especially skulls and their cranium structure) are more closely related to birds (such as the ostrich), rather than reptilian bones (like the crocodile). Due to birds and dinosaurs having similar cranium structures, scientists believe that they might have had the same thinking abilities as well. Also, some dinosaurs could have been warmblooded.
What are the animals you might find in a zoo?
monkey birds reptiles [ snakes, turtles,lizards
The name of the first flying dinosaur?
No known species of dinosaur was ever able to fly despite birds being believed to have evolved from them. The flying reptiles such as the pterodactylus, tapejara, geosternbergia and ornithocheirus etc are collectively known as 'pterosaurs'. Their taxonomy is considered different from the dinosaurs. The largest of the pterosaurs to be discovered so far is the Quetzalcoatlus.
What were real dinosaur like?
No body knows. Though they have an idea they might be like morden day birds or reptiles
Were all dinosaurs enormous?
No, the smallest discovered so far is around the size of a crow. However, there is good evidence that modern birds are descended from dinosaurs and some palaeontologists think that if we saw a dinosaur, we'd think it was a rather odd bird, so you might argue that humming birds are the smallest dinosaurs.
How did dinosaurs start to egsist?
No one knows exactly how dinosaurs started to exist, but some people believe that they evolved from single celled organisms that lived in the oceans. Some scientist believe that dinosaurs might be related to lizards or to birds.
Can a reptile actually be a dinosaur?
No modern reptile is considered a dinosaur. The only living animals that might be considered dinosaurs are birds.
Would a ferret kill?
A ferret might kill any rodent, birds, small snake or reptiles, maybe bugs.
Did people exist during the time of dinosaurs?
Yes and know. Most dinosaurs died of in a massextinction about 65 and a half million years ago. The oldest human ancestor or hominids found is about 3 to 4 millions years old. Some may have survived the mass extinction and others may have evolved into birds, fish and reptiles.
How do you think the size of a newborn mammal might compare to a newly hatched mammal?
This might be a trick question, since mammals do NOT hatch their young in eggs - that woulde be birds and reptiles.
