    This is a good website! I learned that the pterosaurs' size ranged to the size of a sparrow to the size of an airplane. Their ability to fly probably allowed them to evolve into many nitches.

    Cool website about pterosaurs
  • angelaeast on 03 Dec 12
     
    This is a educational website about pterosaurs. I found it by looking about a cool picture on the different head types of the pterosaurs. It is amazing how many different head types there actually are for a pterosaurs. I would suggest looking here for any useful information that you would like to know about pterosaurs.

    This was helpful to learn about the history of Eathquakes in Colorad. Didn't know that Colorado ecer had a earth quake history let aline actually have a minor earth quake in the 1800. Even though I didn't learn about ts in my class, other clsses had probablly learned abiut it.

    I'm very surprised that they actually are typically yellow, grey, colorless, or even BROWN! I thought that they were kind of blue. This truly surprised me.

    Some of the major tectonic plates are the North American, African, and Antarctic plates. There are only a few major tectonic plates. There are three different boundaries that are formed when the plates move.

  • Charlie Wallace on 01 Dec 12
     
    I really liked this website! I cannot believe that there are also smaller tectonic plates, other than the big ones. I never knew that.

  • angelaeast on 03 Dec 12
     
    This was a very good article about the movements of tectonic plates. One of the most interesting facts that I had learned from reading the article was that the tectonic plates make up earths outer shell called the lithosphere. There were also many different things that I didn't know about such as that if the plates keep diverging in the Great Rift Valley in Africa, millions of years from now, eastern Africa will split apart from the continent creating a new continent. the three different types of Tectonic Boundaries are called convergent, divergent, and transform.

  • kohlterry on 27 Nov 12
     
    It is so cool that dragon flies were so much bigger than they are now.
  • evanrumsfeld on 27 Nov 12
     
    The dragonflies of this size could not be sustained because the oxygen level lowered.
  • cj5600 on 27 Nov 12
     
    I see why the dragonflies could have grown faster because of the oxygen level. There was more oxygen then. With less oxygen, they could not have grown very fast and would run out of breath.
  • macycummings on 27 Nov 12
     
    I wonder why they shrank or "came back" after the great dying?
  • elevine_14 on 27 Nov 12
     
    The giant dragon flies are 15 percent larger than others. This is interesting to know and read!
  • Tucker Hamilton on 27 Nov 12
     
    The reason why dragonflies are smaller is because of a decrease in oxygen over the years since then. The deacreased oxygen makes the bugs smaller because there is less oxygen for there bodies
