Thanks! I drive through here all the time and have wondered about these things.
Glad to help! Utah has beautiful geology!
❤❤
Great video 🔥🥰🥰♥️
Thank you 🤗

Oh i love snow leopard geckos!!!!
Torvosaurus diplodocus saurophaganx allosaurus ceratosaurus dryosaurus and diplodocus
It appears that Carl Linnaeus might be the type specimen for Homo sapiens, as he described the species, and he was the most studied specimen by the describer (himself). Both the story that Cope tried to be designated the lectotype for Homo sapiens and that he suffered from syphilis may be false (when his remains were studied, it appeared that he suffered from abscessed teeth, but not syphilis). Incidentally, being a "typical" specimen or lacking pathology is not a requirement for type specimens, at least in extant species.
I could accept Linnaeus as the type specimen haha. It is possible there were some false claims on Cope. He and Marsh had a lot of not-so-true things said about them (often by the other) so I wouldn't be surprised if the syphilis was one of them. I also did not know that about extant species but that explains a lot.
Does paleontology ever do lectotypes (choosing a representative specimen versus the holotype being the first or most complete specimen)?
I haven't been keeping up with a lot of Sauropod updates and/or discoveries lately, so where does Argentinosaurus stand in terms of "largest Sauropod ever"? Does it still hold that title, or has it been dethroned? If the latter, how far behind is it (second place, third place, etc.)?
Curious case of the smoke detector beeping!.
They should have been called "pillar leg"
Change the battery in your smoke alarm, please.
I'm so glad Brontosaurus is back!
In Summary: Groups of large theropods sometimes go for sick/elder/young individuals
Argentinosaurus
Wow
If it comes down to those 2 then I would go with Supersaurus. I remember when the finds from Dry Mesa quarry were being discussed in the media 2 huge sauropods were being talked about. Now I understand why they were the main focus of discussion.
ANSWER: B. "LIZARD FOOT"
LETTER B! LIZARD FOOT!!! "Sauropod" refers to a group of dinosaurs known as sauropods, which are a clade of saurischian dinosaurs characterized by their long necks, long tails, small heads relative to their body size, and four thick, pillar-like legs. They are notable for their enormous sizes, with some species being the largest animals to have ever lived on land. Sauropods include well-known genera such as Brachiosaurus, Diplodocus, Apatosaurus, Camarasaurus, and Brontosaurus. The name "Sauropoda" was coined by Othniel Charles Marsh in 1878 and is derived from ancient Greek, meaning "lizard foot." Sauropods are recognized as one of the most recognizable groups of dinosaurs and have become iconic in popular culture due to their impressive size source. - 🙃
I can tell you like sauropods haha. You should check out the phylogeny videos I out out on Monday!
C. Lizard tail
Unfortunately, the answer is "lizard foot" but good effort!

So interesting
Thanks bro needed this for bio
this is cool, thanks
you're welcome!
Quartzite
Great video all these pretty scientist ladies I like it.
Are you into watery solutions of quartz? Because i have a pretty hard time, explaining how plants can accumulate several percent of the ash in silicone, when it is only soluble in minuscule amounts, in the typical 5-7 pH range in soil. My access is that the solubility is actually high all the time, but the saturation is abysmally low🤪 I am really lost here, because i don't find matching material on Scholar and idk if there isn't any or i just lack the proper keywords🤗 Btw. have fun watching me on a excursion in a Kaolinite mine, where we look on the measly remnants of a quartz vein😁
I don't have a biology background so unfortunately I have no information to help you. Good luck in your endeavors though!
@@mineralsrocksandfossiltalks The biology / uptake part is not my issue. It is the rocky part, from the rhinestone into solution.
@@goiterlanternbase I mean, that's just simple chemistry, It's all about the type of bonds and the ions present in a given solution.
Bravo! Your voice is too low , soft...i like meteorites , ..oliveine an peridots , ...how would you seek a metiorites , what field tests , what tools would you take along ,where would you look ? ....show ideas. Thanks. Press on comtade!
Meteors are very, very rare because they usually break up in atmosphere. You have to look for impact zones but again, those are few and far between. I have never bothered to go look. Much easier to just search out basalt which has basically the same composition minus iridium.

Thank you for the great video.
Glad you enjoyed it!
I think 20%, but that's just a guess out of the blue
That is correct!
@@mineralsrocksandfossiltalks I'm smart🔥
How and when does it drop out of solution?
It's less "falling out of solution" and more crystallization as a magma cools. Quartz is the last mineral in a magma to crystallize. If you watch this video czcams.com/video/1Ns_C2-hHCk/video.html&ab_channel=Minerals%2CRocks%2CandFossilTalks it talks a bit about the formation of quartz in magmas.
Yes and men do not turn into women or vice versa
Quiet voice + loud music is not a productive combination.
Yeah, it comes through just fine in editing. I'm trying to figure out why it's not translating over once published.
Cool!
Saurophaganax is my favorite jurassic predator. Allosaurus is my 2nd favorite.
I hope you're recording from the back seat . . .
I mean, the passenger seat. I don't drive on road trips. Too many rocks to distract me and my sister loves driving.

Guy or a girl ?
Hella neat one day
Dunkleosteus please.
Ambatukam
yes clearly
TTB
Zilla for the win.
I'll take the the Midwestern homie.
A can vs a can opener? Really? Bruh
I'll take the underdog mammal.
Warmy for the win.
