Quick dinosaur facts to know
Dinosaurs lived during the Mesozoic Era (Triassic, Jurassic, and Cretaceous), and they ranged from small, feathered runners to massive long-necked herbivores.
Many modern birds are considered living dinosaurs because they evolved from theropod ancestors, which is why feathers and bird-like bones matter in fossil studies.
Tips for better scores
- Learn the main groups (theropods, sauropods, ornithischians) and a few examples of each
- Watch for clues in teeth and hips to infer diet and classification
- Use time-period keywords (Triassic/Jurassic/Cretaceous) to narrow choices
- Don’t over-rely on size; many famous dinosaurs weren’t the biggest in their group
- Review common fossil terms like formation, strata, and excavation
