Leisurely Live Broadcast from Ocean Global

no doubt.

This commentary by the Institute of Marine Biology, Chinese Academy of Sciences.

In Yang Xu's live broadcast room for a while.

A stone stirred up a thousand waves.

After all, there were originally tens of millions of sand sculpture netizens.

Most of them came with the mentality of watching the fun and not taking it too seriously.

And, before that.

It is believed that this huge mosasaur-like sea creature.

It is closely related to Mosasaurus of the reptile class.

but!

Now it seems!

This doesn't seem to be the case!

In the opinion of marine biologists in the field of professional "three eight three".

Mosasaurus is a creature with a very strong head and extremely tight joints between its mandibles.

Therefore, Mosasaurus cannot swallow its prey in one bite like "Neptune Dragon".

At least from this point of view.

This 'mosasaur-like' marine creature discovered and recorded by Yang Xu.

The characteristics are relatively consistent.

besides.

Mosasaurus teeth are sharp and conical in shape.

Slightly curved to take the shape of a barb.

When the dual frequency is closed, it can generate a large torque.

And then disembowel the prey, or even cut off the middle!

besides.

Inside the upper jaw of Mosasaurus, there is also a row of teeth for dragging food.

Therefore, under the premise that the prey cannot be swallowed in one bite.

Inferred by scholars of paleontology.

Mosasaurus should bite off the prey and tear it to the right size in the process of hunting, and then eat.

Just from this point of view.

Mosasaurus hunting method.

It is somewhat similar to the Komodo dragon, the largest lizard in the world today.

However, because the mosasaur is more massive.

The scene is bound to be more impactful.

Because in the picture taken by Yang Xu.

from start to finish.

None of them have successfully recorded the hunting scenes of 'mosasaur-like' marine creatures.

So can't judge.

It's in the way of hunting.

And the ancient Cretaceous ocean overlord "mosasaur".

Whether there is a high similarity.

in addition.

More research by marine paleontologists.

In the sensory system of mosasaurs, vision is relatively weak.

But under the premise of poor eyesight.

Their sense of smell and hearing are extremely developed!

Like some reptilian lizards, mosasaurs are even in the process of evolution.

"Inherited the tongue that can be used as a sniffing organ!

Mosasaurus ears have a peculiar structure, according to incomplete statistics from scientists.

It is speculated that it has the ability to amplify sound by 38 times!

In addition, the archaeologists' findings in the mosasaur head fossils are presumed.

Mosasaurus can use nerves on the sides of the upper jaw and snout.

Detect pressure waves generated by prey in the ocean!

And then achieve the precise positioning of the hunting target!

Although the principle is different.

But its main ability...

It can already be compared with the sound wave positioning of most cetaceans!

There are tens of millions of sand sculpture netizens in the live broadcast room.

Regarding the previous comments on the "Institute of Marine Biology, Chinese Academy of Sciences", it can be said that there is a lot of discussion!

[My God! That is to say, these mosasaur marine creatures may have evolved new organs to adapt to the deep-sea environment over the years without having gills?]

[Then the question is, if this kind of mosasaur marine creature belongs to reptiles without gills, then if its gills have the ability to breathe in seawater, wouldn't it be a reptile? ?"

[This question may need to be answered by someone who is more professional to receive it. All in all, it's amazing and it's over!"

[Only through the screen, it is still uncertain whether the similar things on both sides of these mosasaurs have other functions? Is it too early to draw a conclusion?”

[5.4 I don’t know what to do with 6666, although I can’t quite understand it, but Xu Ge Niu’s criticism is over~)

Next up!

Yang Xu plans to continue to follow the mosasaur-like marine creatures.

What happens when you dive under the sea.

And then confirmed that the organ that looks like a leg.

Does it have the ability to breathe in sea water?

If available.

Then this will be in the process of biological evolution.

The most amazing discovery, and there is no one!
