Jurassic Park has many different examples of science in it, the question is whether or not the science is actually real. In my group we chose the topic evolution and we found that Michael Crichton was actually very accurate with what he shows in the movie and books about there evolution. when looking at a dinosaur such as the Velociraptor you can very plainly see it is clearly an ancestor of modern day birds given its talons and also its hollow bones. He also talks about the dinosaurs being able to in certain single sex environments change sex because of the dna infused with african frog. This is also plausible because the african horned frog has the ability to change its sex in a single sex environment.

  1. Your topic was actually one of my favorites. I especially appreciated the application of what we are looking at from the fossil record and comparing it to what our modern day creatures are like.
