In this episode, your thinker will explore:
Fossil Science & Geology: Exploring how ancient organisms turn into stone, along with the science behind fossil molds, casts, and preserved trace tracks.
Multiplicative Ratio Scaling: Scaling whole-number measurement rates to compare dinosaur teeth and claw lengths without relying on fractions.
