archaeopteryx had feathers and several bird-like features while
also having teeth and a long bony tail like a dinosaur;
additionally, the archaeopteryx had a large brain similar to that
of a bird. Thus, the discovery of the fossils established a link
between birds and dinosaurs.

Text 2
A British team of researchers challenged the link between birds
and dinosaurs by questioning the conclusion from the
archaeopteryx fossils that the brain of that dinosaur correlates
with that of a bird based on size. The team, led by Dr. David
Hone, has discovered that bats also have brains similar in size
to the archaeopteryx, furthering questioning if the
archaeopteryx was truly a bird or some other flying species.
Thus, the archaeopteryx cannot be conclusively determined to
be a bird based on the fossils.

There are a number of ways insect parasites overtake their
hosts. Biologists had believed that parasites attack when their
hosts are most vulnerable, during the egg stage. However, Dr.
Edward Assmuss and his team believed that many parasites
may wait until the insect host is further developed or grown,
therefore providing more potential nourishment to the parasite.
To prove this hypothesis, the team placed members of a group
of parasitic flies known as Phora in an enclosure with
honeybees at different stages of life. Some of the honeybees
were still in the egg stage, while others were in the larval stage
of development, which occurs after the hatching of the egg.
Which detail, if true, would most directly support the team’s
hypothesis?
