Was prophet Adam living with dinosaurs?
According to most scientists, dinosaurs were extinct by the time human beings came around.
What was the Megalosaurus' habitat?
England, North America and the African continent have yielded the often re-classified remains of this bipedal theropod, believed to be a carnivore.
The answer is still under debate.
All or part of an organism becomes encased in amber (petrified evergreen tree sap), Ice (glaciers), Or tar (Rancho La Brae Tar Pits of Los Angeles)
The two branches this would likely fall under are:
Paleontology, which is the scientific study of life existent prior to the Holocene Epoch era. Using biochemistry, mathematics and engineering, paleontologists are able to discover much about of the evolution of life, almost all the way back to when Earth became capable of supporting life, about .
Biology, which is the study of life and living organisms, including their structure, function, growth, evolution, distribution, and taxonomy.
Most common types of ferns, and several of the conifers were growing on earth at the time of the dinosaurs.

A saltopus is believed to be one of the oldest known dinosaurs. It is speculated to be approximately 200 million years old. It was only 2 feet tall, thought to be very fast, and possibly a carnivore. The age of the saltopus fossel, like most fossils, is based upon the particular geological layer in which it was found. The layers are believed to have formed over extened periods of time, but also known to form very rapidly under some conditions such as flooding. The aging of the layers is based upon the age of the fossils found within the layer.
Why is it important to understand the cause of the dinosaurs extinction?
Understanding the causes of an extinction can help us prepare for and hopefully prevent a similar situation in the future. The fact that as much as 90% of dinosaur species died out from climate change near the end of the Mesozoic warns us not to allow global warming to get out of hand. Because we know that the death blow to the dinosaurs was the asteroid impact, astronomers keep track of Near Earth Objects, and are formulating plans for deflecting a large asteroid or comet in the event that one heads toward Earth.
Sauromorphopoda. (Diplodocus, Apatosaurus, Sauroposeidon, etc) Those long, long necks? The very thing for reaching the higher branches. Those peg-like teeth? Perfect for stripping the branches. Big gizzards? Ideal for grinding up tough cones and needles.
The ostrich-like dinosaur? Naah. They were found to be (probably) herbivorous, and otherwise feeding on less quick and agile insects and possibly even filterfeeding from water like flamingos do today.
What were the forests like when it was the dinosaur times?
Forests consisted of the plants of the time. The dominant trees were conifers; some of these conifers that still exist today include Auracaria and Sequoia. There were also cycads, ferns, seed ferns, horsetails, and mosses. Toward the end of the Mesozoic, flowering plants such as palms and primitive grasses evolved.
Were dinosaurs first foosils found?
yes Dr.Shancy found the first fosils and put it in a museum which is now destroyed
Will dinosaurs ever exist again?
They still do. Many scientists consider modern birds to be dinosaurs. But it is unlikely that they will develop into anything resembling "classic" dinosaurs. Once a group of animals goes extinct it is gone forever.
What does a meteor crater in Iowa tell us about the extinction of the dinosaurs?
this doesnt tell us much infact it tells us nothing except that a meteor landed there or a chunk of that meteor landed there
What time period did menes live in?
The Protodynastic era of Egyptian history, sometime around 3000 BC
Who was the leader of the dinosaurs?
Some dinosaurs are beleived to have lived in herds, probably led by an Alpha leader as most modern herd animal herds are. Some predators may have hunted in packs like wolves and may have had alphas as well. Other dinosaurs wer probably solitary. This is largely speculatory as there is little remaining evidence of dinosaur behaviour ecxept form what we can deduce from their fossil remains.
