Write their responses on the board. For example: What if the ants disappeared? Would there be less food for larger animals like lizards? Because lizards eat ants both as a source of food and a source of water, the disappearance of ants could possibly endanger the survival of lizards. The lizards are a source of food for Hawks, Road Runners and other predators. So the survival of lizards effects the survival of their predators. What...

Dinosaurs have four-chambered hearts like birds and mammals (which are warm-blooded). Doesn t this support the idea that dinosaurs, too, were warm-blooded? A. Crocodilians and veranial lizards (monitor lizards, Komodo dragons, etc.) also have four-chambered hearts, but function as cold-blooded reptiles. Q.
