Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is C)

The size of the Europasaurus is amazing to scientists because most dinosaurs were much larger.

Explanation:

The Europasaurus is considered an abnormal species because, by virtue of its classification, it belonged to a group of dinosaurs known for their huge sizes - The Sauropods.

Sauropods amongst other dinosaurs were the largest of all terrestrial dinosaurs of the Jurassic age.

While a typical Sauropod could have reached 60 meters (200 feet) in length and weighed over 120 tons, the Europasaurus was only estimated to have measured l 1.7 meters (6 feet) in length which is about the size of a cow.
