Were they any dinosaurs living in water?

Define dinosaur. Dinosaurs were the dominant vertebrate animals of terrestrial ecosystems. Meaning they only lived in land. The ones that live in water are other reptiles but certainly they are not dinosaurs.

There were numerous prehistoric reptiles that were aquatic, such as the ichthyosaurs, plesiosaurs and mosasaurs, that were alive during the time of dinosaurs.

What eats the parasaurolophus dinosaur?

Tyrannosaurids (relatives of T-rex), such as Daspletosaurus and Gorgosaurus, almost certainly hunted Parasaurolophus. Dromaeosaurus, a raptor, may have been able to bring down large prey like Parasaurolophus. All kinds of small omnivorous and carnivores would have eaten Parasaurolophus eggs if given the chance. These include Struthiomimus, Saurornitholestes, Troodon, Dromaeosaurus, and many others.

How did the eoraptor dinosaur defended from others?

Eoraptor was only 3 feet long with a weight of 22 lb. As it lacked any formidable weapons, it would have run from potential threats. If necessary, it probably could have bitten an enemy to defend itself, although that wouldn't have been very effective against most of its predators.

What is the lifespan of an oviraptor?

Oviraptor, by scientific guess, lived around 3 years, maybe 5 if there are few predators. Oviraptor could well defend itself, though. It is probable they could live longer, but we may never know, due to the fact that Oviraptor is extinct.

Scientists usually name dinosaurs after a body feature a person involved in the discovery or a third characteristic what is that third characteristic?

Sometimes there's a designation to where the fossil was found (as in Tuojiangosaurus or Neanderthal). Sometimes, there's a prefix designating the animal's place in evolution (like "proto" in Protoceratops, showing that it was one of the original ceratopsians). Another designation might be to the size of the critter (such as in microraptor or Seismosaurus).

What is the presumed evolutionary link between theropod dinosaurs and birds based on?

Otherwise known as dino birds, these dinos were the first "birds" to exist.

Which of the three taxa of dinosaurs which do birds belong?

Dinosaurs were divided into two big groups: ornistichia (bird hip) and saurischia (lizard hip). The confussing part is that scientists believe that birds evolved from a group of therapods similar to small velociraptors and therapods are saurischia.

How do scientists learn more about a clump of stone that might be a small dinosaur's heart?

scientists can tell by looking at a clump of stone that its a dinosaur heart because there are machines that they use that help them and they also discuss it with others and while doing those things it helps them discover that that stone is not a stone.

What can you compare the weight of a dinosaur to?

You can compare it to a water buffalo because a male water buffalo can weight up to 2 tons

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.
