User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

In 10,000 BC, humans were not cavemen, but rather early hunter-gatherer societies. These early humans lived in various types of dwellings, but the popular image of cavemen typically refers to prehistoric humans who lived in caves during the Paleolithic period, which was much earlier than 10,000 BC.

What was the tallest dinosaur?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

It's difficult to say at this point. A lot of the largest and possibly tallest dinosaurs aren't very complete.

Brachiosaurus is still the most complete large dinosaur which we can say with reasonable certainly was tall. It might have been able to reach about 14m in height if it's posed with an elevated neck.

There is another brachiosaur called Sauroposeidon which is only known from 4 neck bones. These are very long (the largest bone is 1.4m long). It suggests a dinosaur with a 11 to 12m neck. There are a lot of uncertainties as to what the rest of it looked like so it's default to know exactly how tall it was. Assuming its body was built like that of Brachiosaurus, and it held its neck in an elevated pose, it might have been able to reach about 17m in height.
Sauropoisedon
suropods.

What dinosaur has the longest name?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The longest dinosaur name is Micropachycephalosaurus which is 23 letters long.

(pronounced MY-cro-PACK-ee-SEF-ah-lo-SAWR-us)

The Micropachycephalosaurus (meaning "tiny thick-headed lizard") was a very small pachycephalosaurid, a thick-skulled, plant-eating ornithischian dinosaur. It was about 1.5-3 feet (0.5-1 m) long and weighed roughly 22-33 pounds (10-15 kg). It lived during the late Cretaceous period, about 83 to 73 million years ago. Its fossils have been found in China; only a very incomplete specimen has been found.

The Micropachycephalosaurus was named in 1978 by the Chinese paleontologist Dong. The type species is M. hongtuyanensis.

If humans evolved from the sea where did the dinosaurs evolve from?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Humans evolved from mammals like dinosaurs such as dimetrodon.

All Vertebrate's evolved from the sea, Dinosaurs and Humans alike (the first were neither Reptiles nor Mammals but Tetrapods). These Tetrapods were the first to make the move from ocean to land:

At the time of the Dinosaurs the only Mammals were tiny mouse like creatures unable to increase in size and complexity due to the domination of the Dinosaurs - that small size helped the early mammals to survive underground whilst the Dinos perished during the extinction event. And the rest, is history!

What percentage of dinosaurs died?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

99%.

The remaining 1% of the dinosaurs that lived on were the birds.

Technically, you could say all of the dinosaurs died out, as in all of their species, because all the bird species alive back then are not around today.

Why didn't the dinosaurs enter the Ark?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

It needs to be clearly understood that many dinosaurs died in the global flood of Noah's day. Secondly, it is also highly likely that there were representative kinds of dinosaurs, most likely young specimens, taken aboard the ark. There is absolutely no reason to assume that they weren't taken aboard, as they would have been included in the 'two of every kind' that God brought to Noah, to preserve genetic diversity on the earth.

Also, it must be remembered that the climate of the earth underwent drastic change due to the processes associated with the flood, including the ice-age which followed it. As a part of this process, the dinosaurs which went off the ark most likely then became extinct. It is interesting to note in this connection, the widespread existence of 'monster' or 'dragon' accounts, commonly interpreted as legends among many of the people groups of the earth, including in China and some quite recent accounts from England.

So, to quite simply summarize the answer: Noah took dinosaurs on the ark. Secondly they became extinct afterwards, in the drastically altered post-flood environment.

They must have been on the ark probably as adolescents to compensate for their size.
