    This is great because it gets right to the point and is very easy to understand. I also like in the beginning how it said that sauropod means lizard footed.

    This website is descriptive and interesting and exactly what we are learning about

    I thought it was interesting that sauropods adapted to have body armor. This is a very good resource.

    It used to be thought that the sauropods had a second brain at the base of the tail. Paleontologists now realize that what they thought was a second brain was perhaps an enlargement in the spinal cord in the hip area (although this is not universally accepted), containing nerves and fatty tissue. This enlargement was larger than the animal's tiny brain and may have controlled the animal's hind legs and tail.

    I thought that this was an excellent resource. The information was organized in a clear way. This is a website we should look at in class.

    This is a very resourceful website. It showed what they ate, what they looked like, species of sauropods and many other interesting facts!

    It was very interesting how the sauropods have a tiny head therefore brain and are only plant eaters. The sauropods are very huge!

    This was a very useful website that talked about the size of the sauropods bodies and necks, what they ate, and a lot of other cool facts about them.

    Sauropods are not heavily armed, but later versions of sauropods had some form of armor which was used as protection against other predators. Sauropods were plant eaters and had a very small brain hecause their head was very small. They were herbavores and ate mostley connifers.

    Brontosaurus was one of the largest land animals that ever existed. The dinosaur Brontosaurus is now called Apatosaurus. This enormous plant-eater measured about 70-90 feet long!!!! and about 15 feet tall at the hips.

    This site tells about the brontosaurus which is now called apatosaurus. This dinosaur has a very small intelligence. This was a good website.

    I never knew that some of those dinosaurs existed back then from the chart at the very bottom of the page.

    This site helps to make easier to understand what some of the dinosaurs that existed back then are called

    Evan, this was a very good site to learn about brontosaurus or apatosaurus. Apatosaurus have a small head which concludes that they have a small brain, and aren't the most intelligent species that had lived during their time. They had a long tail which acted as a counterbalanced to its very long neck. It also was a tool of protection from other predatorsYet the extremely long neck had advantages for a herbavore who would be constantly attacked by hungry predators. The apatosaurus was a very tall sauropod, which was taller than the allosaurus, which was a predator of the time. The allosaurus is not tall enough to try and snap at the head of the dinosaur, and it wouldn't be smart to get near a whip like like tail such as the apatosaurus's. It had a bulky body and ate rocks to help the digestion of its food.An interesting fact that i had learned was that their nostrils were located on the top of their head, but it couldn't be used as a snorkeling device because the apatosaurus lived on land and not near many big masses of water. I had peg like teeth, which resembling ones of a lizard today, and had four legs.

    This website was very useful in talking about the apatosaurus. The apatosaurus was a plant eater (herbivore). This dinosaur had a small head and walked on four legs. The apatosaurus was one of the biggest land animals.
