1. Quickmud is ash combined with water to create a mud trap. It is like quicksand.
2.Dinosaurs from 230 million years ago were the size of a German shepherd.
3. The dinosaur is bizzare because
it is a toothless meat eater.
4.Guanlong's arms were different from a Tyrannosaurus Rex's arms because Guanlong's arms were stronger and it probably catches its prey with its arms while the Tyrannosaurus Rex's arms are weak.
5. I wouldn't want to play in quickmud because mud is dirty and I don't like getting dirty.
1.Quickmud is a mixture of ashes from volcanoes,water, and a little bit of dirt.
2.Dinosaurs from 230 million years ago were the size of German Sheperds today.
3.This dinosaur was a bizzare animal because when you think of reptiles, you think of visious reptiles with large teeth.Also because I don't think anyone in this classroom knows how this animal can eat its prey.
4.Guanlong's arms were different because according to the article it says that Guanlong's arms were most likely used to catch its prey.While the Tyrannasauru's arms were really useless. The rex only used its unthinkable jaw and its gargantuant feet.
5.I would shant play in quickmud because it's most likely that I will die in this type of mud. Besides I wouldn't think that anybody would want to die that way. At least I think so.
