was the stegosaurus warm or cold-blooded?
Stegosaurus was a dinosaur, and paleontologists continue to find more evidence that dinosaurs were warm blooded. Thus, Stegosaurus was probably warm blooded.

How did they find out that Stegosaurus lived in 145 and 155 million years?
Stegosaurus fossils actually date to between 155 and 150 million years ago. Using various methods, paleontologists are able to determine the age of rocks. Then they know that fossils in those rocks are the same age as the rocks. In the case of Stegosaurus, they know the rocks are between 155 and 150 million years old, and they know the Stegosaurus fossils are the same age.

How do you know a stegosaurus is herbivore?
Paleontologists can usually tell whether an animal was a plant eater or meat eater by examining its jaws and teeth. Stegosaurus's teeth show that it was undoubtedly herbivorous.They probably ate mosses, ferns, horsetails, cycads and conifers. A study of the bite force and teeth of Stegosaurus suggests that they couldn't bite through sticks that were more than 1.2 centimeters thick, so they would have needed to eat very tender vegetation.
Was a diplodocus a herbivore or carnivore?
