21、asonal growth on the bones. All fish bone cell densities and volumes can indicate the season. Because the accelerator also could capture the sizes, researchers were able to determine when in the year the asteroid hit, Dennis Voeten, a researcher at Uppsala University in Sweden told USA Today.The tim
22、ing of the collision, at least for the Northern Hemisphere, came at a particularly sensitive stage. ”I think spring puts a large group of the late Cretaceous biota (白垩纪生物) in a very vulnerable spot because they were out and about looking for food, tending to offspring and trying to build up resource

Over time I realized he wanted more than just routine answers. Having shown me how to
