What were the two possible effects of slow climate change on the dinosaurs' habitats?
Slow climate change during the time of the dinosaurs could have led to changes in vegetation distributions, affecting food availability for herbivorous dinosaurs. It could also have influenced sea levels and ocean currents, impacting marine ecosystems and the availability of marine food sources for dinosaurs living along the coastlines.
How does climate change explain the extinction of dinosaurs?
Climate change from a large asteroid impact caused a dramatic drop in temperature, disrupting ecosystems and food chains. This led to the extinction of many plant and animal species, including the dinosaurs that could not adapt to the rapidly changing conditions.
What are your opinions on earth's climate change and how it can affect the evolution of biodiversity?
Climate change could reduce biodiversity by reducing the populations of many different types of plants and animals.
What might happen to the organism if the climate changed and rainfall increased?
If an organisms climate changed drastically enough it could become extinct, it just depends on the type of organism and the level of change, or it could mutate and assimilate to the new climate.
Why would scientists want to know if an asteroid is on a course to collide with earth in 20 years?
If an asteroid were to hit Earth, it could do HUGE damage. It was the changes to Earth after an asteroid hit that killed off the dinosaurs. But if we knew about an asteroid heading our way long enough ahead of time, maybe we could change it's course enough to make it miss, and save millions of lives.

How did climate change kill all the dinosaurs?
It is not certain that climate change killed the dinosaurs. It is likely that several factors combined. Temperatures though rose by around 10°C between the Early and Middle Cretacious Period. This could have been caused by a huge asteroid impact. It could also have been caused by extreme volcanic eruptions in the area of India and Pakistan. There was great climate change in the Late Cretacious Period. Continental movement and volcanic eruptions made many changes. Sea levels fell and tropical vegetation was replaced by woodlands. If the vegetarian dinosaurs' food supply failed, then the food chain would affect the meat eaters too.
How did dinosaurs get extinked?
Man killed all dinosaurs because they saw them as killing pests and the also killed them for teeth,bones and skin. They could also be put into medicens.

What animals killed dinosaurs?
Mostly other dinosaurs. However, there were some ferocious non-dinosaurs during the Mesozoic, such as giant crocodiles (e.g., Phobsuchus) which could have killed and eaten all but the very biggest dinos. Some of the great sea-lizards -- also non-dinosaurs -- during the period could have killed dinosaurs if they'd encountered them, but such combats would have been unlikely since each type of creature lived in a different habitat.
How the dinosaurs comes to dead?
My opinion is that after the world wide flood discussed in Genesis, the earth's atmosphere changed. Dinosaurs could not thrive in this new climate, and slowly died off. Although, it is true that some dinosaurs may still exist on earth. Rumors like the Loch Ness Monster could easily be left over dinosaurs, could they not?
How will you encourage tourists to choose the cretaceous time period to visit?
beautiful climate,exotic plants;) hmmm and maybe you could be creative say something like free transportation on dinosaurs.. hope this helped and good luck
Why do they dinosaurs kill each other?
The answer is actully quite simple. Dinosaurs died because of a build up of gas in the atmosphere at a high rate. The dinosaurs ate plants such as the infamous Flatchalove bush which are the modern day equivalent of bean burritos. This built up gas in the dinosaurs' stomachs which caused them to pass an enormous amount of gas. Within a few decades the gas built up in the atmosphere and soon became more prevalent than oxygen. So in short: Dinosaurs choked to death on their own farts.
Is this a valid hypotheses - dinosaurs became extinct because mammals ate all the dinosaur eggs?
Not likely, while it could be a plausible explanation if it had just been the dinosaurs that went extinct it could work. However, the event that killed off the dinosaurs also killed of a variety of other organisms both on land and in the ocean, where mammals had not yet established themselves. A hypothesis that explains the extinction of the dinosaurs, but not the other life forms that died out in the same event, is incomplete.
In your opinion what killed the dinosaurs?
There is really no room for anyone's "opinion" on what killed the dinosaurs. There is a consensus based on the evidence we have found. The most widely accepted explanation for the extinction of the dinosaurs is the Chicxulub asteroid that impacted the Yucatan Peninsula 65 million years ago. It would have caused a great deal of climate change in very little time and disrupted the food chain. That was likely combined with a spike in volcanic activity that was probably already poisoning the atmosphere before the asteroid came. Anything that could not cope, including the dinosaurs, went extinct. Not only the dinosaurs died, many marine and terrestrial species died out too. But if you really want to know my opinion, I believe aliens visited the Earth, saw those ugly monsters, and decided to just annihilate them on the spot.
Could there possibly be any remaining dinosaurs?
No because a giant metorite hit the earth and killed all the dinosaurs
How can dinosaurs change the environment to become extinct?
Dinosaurs themselves could not change the environment to their desires. 65 million years ago, when the asteroid crashed into the Earth, the result was the environment changing too drastically and quickly for the dinosaurs to be able to adapt to those changes. The plant-eaters were the first to suffer because plants were dying out due to the changed climate. With the plant-eaters gone, the meat-eaters wouldn't be able to find enough food to support themselves with, so they too died out.
