GeoJeopardy! Fridays

Time for GeoJeopardy! Fridays, because my third PhD exam is today. Can't wait!

- Dinosaurs -

In 2006 a fossilized one of these containing 22 broken eggs sold at auction for $420,000

------------------------------------------------------------------

In 2001 Chinese scientists said a group of these made by dinosaurs included one 1 1/2 yards long
-----------------------------------------------------------------

No one knows the purpose, but like modern birds, the stegosaurus has a small hole in its skull called a fenestra, from the Latin for this

-----------------------------------------------------------------

We grew up calling the alleged apatosaurus this; to us it'll always be this--so there!

----------------------------------------------------------------

Known for long necks & small heads, dinosaurs like diplodocus belonged to this "lizard foot" group

-----------------------------------------------------------------
