Plate Tectonics
1. Plates are moving in different directions at different speeds.
2. Movement caused by convection in asthenosphere.
Plate boundary = place where two plates meet.

To learn more about the dinosaur, I would find and observe the layers that the fossil was found in. This would help to find the relative age the fossil is and could find out the order of the geological events that happened in the layer like a fault or intrusion. With the little bones they found, they can use carbon-dating to find the absolute age and what time period it was in. Using its age, they could find out where the dinosaur lived because the continents used to be in different places during a certain time period, if the dinosaur was in that time period they could examine its jaw and teeth structure to find what it would eat. If they find what it eats, they could help determine where it lived; for example, if it ate plants they could narrow the location to where the climate could sustain plants. If it ate meat, they could find animals that lived in the same time period and animals that are prey to the size of this dinosaur and find other animals’ locations to narrow where this dinosaur lived. To find out more about this dinosaur they could use carbon-14
that was in the body to tell how old it is. They could look in the same rock layer that is was found to tell the climate of the area around the dinosaur. They may find fossils of plants or other animals near that area, then check its mouth for what type of teeth it has, that’s why the other fossils are needed so they could know what it ate – if it was an herbivore, carnivore, or omnivore.
