Dinosaurs as a species of ancient times, it can be said that people will pay attention to it from time to time, and today's Crutosaurus has become a species of ancient times, and it is also the site of life.
First, the characteristics of Cruchiosaurus.
Dinosaurs due to the difference in body shape, so there will be large dinosaurs or small dinosaurs, today's Cruchiosaurus is a small dinosaur, in terms of body length, it is about two meters to three meters, the important thing is to live in the Cretaceous time, there have been 100 million years from now, it was found in the Liaoning region of China, in which the mandible is still relatively low, and the teeth are also relatively small, such as some sharp small teeth can be seen around the teeth, and the whole tooth development is not very good, there is a deck, Therefore, it belongs to a class of dinosaurs that people can pay attention to in the past.
2. The study of the habits of Cruchiosaurus.
After understanding the characteristics of Cruchiosaurus, it is also necessary to understand the detailed habits of Crutosaurus, especially how to eat it, which is a herbivorous dinosaur, after relevant research indicates that the discovery of this fossil was found in the Liaoning region, and the stratum where the fossil is located is located in the Cretaceous time, which is far away from today's age, especially the fossils found in it, or the important teeth, as well as the mandible, including some fossils of the cervical vertebrae, etc., it is through the understanding and study of these fossils, I learned more about Cruchiosaurus.
Some experts speculate that the length of this dinosaur itself is relatively short, so it is a small dinosaur, and the discovery of Cruxisaurus is also aimed at the evolution of ankylosaurs, with more understanding, especially the indirect realization of stratigraphic division, as well as the analysis of geological age, etc., so the appearance of Cruxisaurus can provide corresponding assistance for the relevant research of experts, and it has become a major dinosaur subject that can be paid attention to in the future.
Dinosaurs as a species of distant times, it can be said that people have always been concerned about, today's Crusisaurus, has become a species of ancient times, but also the remains of life, now through the fossils of Crusisaurus, or can have more knowledge of Cruchiosaurus, have more understanding.
1. Characteristic performance of Cruchiosaurus.
Dinosaurs because of the different body shapes, so there will be large dinosaurs or small dinosaurs, the current Crudosaurus is a small dinosaur, in terms of body length, is up to about two meters to three meters, mainly lived in the Cretaceous period, 100 million years away from now, was found in the Liaoning region of China, in which the mandible is still relatively low, in addition to the teeth are also relatively small, such as around the teeth can also see some sharp teeth, and the whole tooth development is not very good, there is a deck, Therefore, it belongs to a class of dinosaurs that people can pay attention to at present.
2. Research on the habits of Cruchiosaurus.
After understanding the characteristics of Cruchiosaurus, it is also necessary to understand the specific habits of Crudosaurus, especially how to feed it, which is a herbivorous dinosaur, after relevant studies have shown that the discovery of this fossil was found in the Liaoning area, and the stratum where the fossil is located is mainly located in the Cretaceous period, which is far away from the present age, especially the fossils found in it, or mainly contain teeth, as well as mandibles, including some fossils of the cervical vertebrae, etc., it is through the understanding and research of these fossils, I learned more about Cruchiosaurus.
Some experts speculate that the length of this dinosaur itself is relatively short, so it is a small dinosaur, and the discovery of Cruxisaurus is also for the evolution of ankylosaurs, with more understanding, especially the direct completion of the stratigraphic division, as well as the analysis of geological age, etc., so the appearance of Cruxisaurus can provide corresponding help for the relevant research of experts, and it has become a major dinosaur subject that can be paid attention to at present.
Dinosaurs (Latin dinosauria) were diverse and dominant terrestrial vertebrates in the Mesozoic era, which dominated the world's terrestrial ecosystems for more than 160 million years.
Dinosaurs first appeared in the Triassic period 230 million years ago and died out in the late Cretaceous period, about 65 million years ago, during the late Cretaceous period.
But the descendants of the dinosaurs, the birds, survived and thrives to this day.
Dinosaurs were the dominant terrestrial vertebrates in the Mesozoic, especially in the Jurassic and Cretaceous.
During the Jurassic and Cretaceous periods, when dinosaurs were dominant, almost all land animals larger than 1 meter in length were dinosaurs, and other animals of the era were limited by their size development and ecological niche.
Mammals, for example, were mostly close to modern rodents in size, no larger than the size of cats, carnivorous, and lived on small animals.
One exception is the Cretaceous giant reptile (Repenomamusgiganticus), which weighed 12 to 14 kilograms and was known to feed on small dinosaurs such as the juvenile Psittacosaurus.
The dinosaur family is extremely large and diverse.
As of 2006, more than 500 genera have been identified; It is estimated that the total number of genera that have appeared in the fossil record is about 1,850, of which 75% have been found fossils.
An early study speculated that dinosaurs had nearly 3,400 genera, most of which could not be preserved in the fossil record.
As of September 17, 2008, there were 1,047 species of dinosaurs.
Dinosaurs were herbivorous animals as well as carnivorous and omnivorous animals.
Some dinosaurs walked on two legs, or on four legs, or sand dragons and avian dragons could switch freely between bipedal and quadruped.
Many dinosaurs had scales on their bodies, or had horns or crowns on their heads.
Although dinosaurs are known for their huge size, many dinosaurs were only human-sized, or even smaller.
Dinosaur fossils have been found on all continents of the world, including Antarctica.
Dinosaurs were remarkably adaptable to life on land, regardless of size, but they could not occupy the niche of marine and flying animals.
The Mesozoic Era in Earth's history was inhabited by a wide variety of reptiles, perhaps the most famous of which was the dinosaurs.
There are hundreds of dinosaur fossils found in the world, and one of them dominates the earthThe 600-million-year-old fauna suddenly disappeared at the end of the Cretaceous period.
A puzzling chapter in the history of biology was written.
Dinosaurs were herbivorous and carnivorous, generally some dwarf herbivorous dinosaurs would stand on their hind limbs and eat high leaves, while carnivorous dinosaurs fed on herbivorous dinosaurs and other animals. In addition, tyrannosaurs-like dinosaurs often acted alone, while large herbivorous dinosaurs often acted in groups to defend themselves against external enemies. Here are a few of the more famous dinosaurs.
What are the breeds of dinosaurs?
1.Tyrannosaurus rex (non-avian dinosaur that survived to the last).
Tyrannosaurus rex, also known as Rex Tyrannosaurus, lived at the end of the Cretaceous period and was one of the last non-avian dinosaur species before the Cretaceous-Tertiary extinction event. Fossils are found in the United States and Canada in North America, and were among the last dinosaurs to become extinct. Tyrannosaurus rex is the largest of the Tyrannosauridae family, with a body length of about 115-14.7 meters.
2.Fragile Dicosaurus (the largest known dinosaur).
The Fragile Dicolucisaurus was the longest and heaviest dinosaur in history, and even weighed more than a blue whale. It is 35 meters long and closely related to Diplodocus.
3.Ankylosaurus dinosaurus (dinosaur with armor).
The body length of the dorsal ankylosaurus could reach 10 meters, and the body was wide and the neck was short; stubby, strong limbs; The feet are short and wide, with 5 fingers on the front foot and 4 toes on the hind foot, and hoof-like claws at the end of the fingers (toes), which are suitable for land activities. Ankylosaurus is often considered the ancestor of armored dinosaurs. It is characterized by a carapace body and a large vertebral tail.
4.Smoothodontosaurus (carnivorous marine dinosaur).
Smoothodontosaurus, which means "smooth lateral teeth", was a carnivorous marine reptile belonging to the short-necked suborder Upper Saurus of the plesiosauridae.
5.Stegosaurus (spiny dinosaur).
Stegosaurus was a giant herbivorous dinosaur, a herbivorous animal that lived in the late Jurassic period, with a row of huge bony plates on its back, and a dangerous tail with four spikes to defend against predator attacks, about 7-9 meters long, 235 meters to 35 meters high and 2 to 4 tons in weight. Due to its peculiar tail spines and bony plates, Stegosaurus is one of the most recognizable dinosaurs and was a herbivore.
The reasons and claims for the extinction of the dinosaurs have been very controversial in the scientific community. But whatever the reason, there must be no doubt that the dinosaurs were unable to adapt to the changed living environment, resulting in mass extinctions.
Dinosaur The term dinosaur in English comes from the Greek words deinos (meaning terror) and saurosc (meaning lizard or reptile).
Dinosaurs (excluding birds) were a group of land-dwelling master reptiles, with limbs erect under the body rather than spreading out on either side, and they appeared in the Late Triassic Carney Order, where various dinosaurs rapidly evolved into different specialized features, developed different body sizes, occupied different ecological niches, and continued to survive until the Late Cretaceous Maastricht.
Dinosaurs (Latin name: dinosauria) were the dominant diverse terrestrial vertebrates of the Mesozoic Era, dominating the world's terrestrial ecosystems for more than 160 million years.
Dinosaurs first appeared in the Triassic period 230 million years ago and died out in the late Cretaceous period, about 65 million years ago.

All people see today is a large number of dinosaur fossils left behind at that time.
That's it, I hope my answer will satisfy you!
Scientists mainly divide the geological age according to the differences between rocks and strata in different periods on the earth, which is simply that if the rocks and strata of a certain period have characteristics that are easily recognizable and clearly different from the sediments of adjacent eras, then they should be divided.
In fact, scientists have classified the Cretaceous because of the widespread presence of a type of chalk sediment (a soft, loose and porous limestone formed mainly by calcium carbonate deposits in the carapace of non-invertebrate organisms in the ocean), which is clearly different from the Jurassic strata. So what is the difference between the Jurassic and the Cretaceous?
In the pre-Jurassic Triassic, the Earth's landmasses were essentially connected, which was known as "Pangea".
In the early Jurassic, the "Pangea" was divided into two large pieces, the northern one was called the "Laoa Continent", the southern one was called the "Gondwana Continent", and in the late Jurassic period, the "Gondwana Continent" was divided into two.
After entering the Cretaceous period, the above process did not stop, and the "Laoya continent" in the north gradually divided into the land equivalent to the current North America and Eurasia, and the "Gondwana continent" in the south was gradually divided into several parts, including the current South America, Africa, Oceania and Antarctica.
It can be seen that the land distribution of the Cretaceous period was more loose than that of the Jurassic.
In the Triassic, because the moist air from the ocean could not penetrate deep into the "Pangea", the terrestrial climate of the entire Triassic was mainly arid, and after entering the Jurassic, a large amount of seawater was able to pour into the cracks produced during the cracking process of the "Pangea", bringing a lot of water vapor to the long-arid land.
At the same time, the dissolution of Pangea also led to active volcanic activity at the time, and the carbon dioxide that had been hidden deep underground was continuously released into the atmosphere, resulting in a greenhouse effect that kept the Earth's temperature at a high level all year round, and relevant studies showed that the average temperature in the Jurassic was 5 to 10 degrees Celsius higher than that of the modern Earth.
In the early Cretaceous period, volcanic activity on the earth had flattened, so the earth's temperature as a whole was on a downward trend, and in the late Cretaceous period, volcanic activity gradually became active, and the temperature also increased. Therefore, the climate of the Cretaceous period underwent a process of "cooling first and then warming".
The Jurassic period is a period of growth of all things, warm and humid climate, so that most of the earth's land is covered by lush plants (mainly gymnosperms), and animals have also made great progress, especially dinosaurs in this period of development particularly rapid, with the guarantee of sufficient food, their size continues to grow, more and more species, there are diplodocus, brachiosaurus, mamenxisaurus, stegosaurus, allosaurus and other dinosaurs that we are familiar with.
Pterodactyls dominated the sky during the Jurassic period, but pterosaurs did not belong to dinosaurs, but during the Jurassic period, the ancestors of birds appeared, and they evolved from dinosaurs, we can call them "avian dinosaurs".
After entering the Cretaceous period, dinosaurs still occupied an absolute advantage, and their species also reached their peak, and the famous Tyrannosaurus rex, Canglong, and Triceratops also appeared in the Cretaceous period.
It is worth mentioning that in the late Cretaceous period, a small dinosaur called "Wounded Tooth Dragon" appeared, and the ratio of brain volume to body size far exceeded that of other animals of the same size, and some researchers even believed that this dinosaur had the possibility of evolving into a higher intelligent organism.
However, the Cretaceous period was a period when dinosaurs went from their heyday to decline, and relevant studies have shown that in the late Cretaceous period, the earth's oceanic crust gradually settled into the mantle, resulting in a continuous decline in the earth's sea level, which led to a continuous decrease in rainfall on the earth's land, and a large number of vegetation disappeared.
The later events must be familiar to everyone, simply put, the real "fatal blow" to the dinosaurs was a huge asteroid hit the earth, dinosaurs (to be precise, "non-bird dinosaurs") have since withdrawn from the stage of the earth, and the era of dinosaurs is over.
In fact, there are many differences between the Jurassic and Cretaceous periods, and the above are just some of them, all in all, these two geological epochs were the glorious periods of life on earth, and also witnessed the rise and fall of dinosaurs.
