Tip of the Day When solving verbal questions with very close answer options, have a consistent strategy: check whether spending time on questions that you are not really confident about rewards you. Depending on your analysis, either leave those questions, or spend more time in order to get them right. Last year's Question of the day (24-Jul-11) Paleontologist John Ostrom's study of Deinonychus in the late 1960s revolutionized the way scientists thought about dinosaurs, leading to the"dinosaur renaissance" and igniting the debate on whether dinosaurs were warm-blooded or cold-blooded. Before this, the popular conception of dinosaurs had been one of plodding, reptilian giants. Ostrom noted the small body, sleek, horizontal posture, ratite-like spine, and especially the enlarged raptorial claws on the feet, which suggested an active, agile predator.
What can be inferred about the "dinosaur renaissance"?
| OPTIONS | | | | | 1) | It was a scientific moment of discovery that reshaped the notions about the biological make of dinosaurs. | | | 2) | John Ostrom was responsible for it because of his study of the Deinonychus. | | | 3) | It busted the notion that dinosaurs were just plodding, reptilian creatures. | | | 4) | All of the above | | | 5) | None of the above |
