How are dinosaurs bones different from humans?
Dinosaur bones
- Are composed of a denser material than human bones, making them more resistant to decay and damage.
- Have proportionally longer limbs, tails and necks compared to humans.
- Have a greater number of vertebrae in their spines.
- Have different bone structures, most notably in their skulls, hips, and limbs, which are adapted to their specific locomotion, diet, and behaviour.
Human bones:
- Are less dense than dinosaur bones, making them more prone to decay and damage.
- Have proportionally shorter limbs, tails and necks compared to dinosaurs.
- Have a lesser number of vertebrae in their spines.
- Have a more upright posture, with their skulls at the top of the spine, while dinosaurs skulls were more horizontally oriented.
