2014 y\u0131l\u0131nda paleontologlar \u00e7\u0131\u011f\u0131r a\u00e7an bir ke\u015fifte bulundular: D\u00fcnyada ya\u015fam\u0131\u015f olabilecek en b\u00fcy\u00fck dinozorun fosille\u015fmi\u015f kal\u0131nt\u0131lar\u0131. Arjantin’deki bir \u00e7iftlikte ortaya \u00e7\u0131kar\u0131lan dinozora, “Mayo ailesinin Patagonya titan\u0131” anlam\u0131na gelen Patagotitan mayorum ad\u0131 verildi.<\/p>\n\n
Patagotitan, devasa v\u00fccudunu ta\u015f\u0131yan muazzam uzuvlar\u0131 ve uzun, kasl\u0131 bir kuyru\u011fu olan bir otoburdu. Sadece boynu bir okul otob\u00fcs\u00fcnden daha uzundu ve toplam uzunlu\u011funun 36 metreyi a\u015ft\u0131\u011f\u0131 tahmin ediliyor. 70 tondan fazla a\u011f\u0131rl\u0131\u011f\u0131yla Patagotitan, bir araya getirilmi\u015f bir d\u00fczine Afrika filinden daha a\u011f\u0131rd\u0131.<\/p>\n\n
Patagotitan’\u0131n muazzam boyutu, Argentinosaurus ve Puertasaurus gibi di\u011fer dev dinozorlarla kar\u015f\u0131la\u015ft\u0131rmalara yol a\u00e7t\u0131. Patagotitan mutlak anlamda en b\u00fcy\u00fck sauropod olmasa da, kesinlikle en eksiksiz ve iyi korunmu\u015f \u00f6rneklerden biri.<\/p>\n\n
Paleontolog Mathew Wedel, mevcut \u00f6l\u00e7\u00fcmlerin Patagotitan’\u0131n boyut olarak Argentinosaurus ile kar\u015f\u0131la\u015ft\u0131r\u0131labilir oldu\u011funu g\u00f6sterdi\u011fini belirtiyor. Bununla birlikte, en b\u00fcy\u00fck sauropod unvan\u0131n\u0131 hangi dinozorun ald\u0131\u011f\u0131n\u0131 belirlemek i\u00e7in daha fazla ara\u015ft\u0131rmaya ihtiya\u00e7 oldu\u011funu vurguluyor.<\/p>\n\n
\u0130lgin\u00e7 bir \u015fekilde, Patagotitan, Argentinosaurus ve Puertasaurus dahil olmak \u00fczere bilinen t\u00fcm s\u00fcper dev sauropodlar\u0131n Kretase d\u00f6nemi Arjantin’inde ayn\u0131 genel b\u00f6lgede ya\u015fam\u0131\u015f oldu\u011fu g\u00f6r\u00fcl\u00fcyor. Bu, \u00e7evresel fakt\u00f6rler veya fizyolojik k\u0131s\u0131tlamalar nedeniyle sauropodlar\u0131n ula\u015fabilece\u011fi boyut i\u00e7in bir \u00fcst s\u0131n\u0131r olabilece\u011fini d\u00fc\u015f\u00fcnd\u00fcr\u00fcyor.<\/p>\n\n
Bu sauropodlar\u0131n a\u015f\u0131r\u0131 b\u00fcy\u00fckl\u00fc\u011f\u00fcn\u00fcn arkas\u0131ndaki nedenler hala tart\u0131\u015f\u0131l\u0131yor. Paleontolog Kristi Curry Rogers, bol kaynaklardan ve devler olarak geli\u015fmelerine olanak tan\u0131yan \u00f6zel fizyolojik uyarlamalardan yararlanmak i\u00e7in devasa bedenlerini evrimle\u015ftirdiklerini \u00f6ne s\u00fcr\u00fcyor.<\/p>\n\n
Wedel, daha b\u00fcy\u00fck boyutun sauropodlara daha fazla yumurta \u00fcretimi, y\u0131rt\u0131c\u0131lardan korunma ve daha d\u00fc\u015f\u00fck kaliteli yiyeceklerle hayatta kalma ve uzun mesafeler g\u00f6\u00e7 etme yetene\u011fi gibi \u00e7e\u015fitli avantajlar sa\u011flad\u0131\u011f\u0131n\u0131 ekliyor.<\/p>\n\n
\u015ea\u015f\u0131rt\u0131c\u0131 bir \u015fekilde, en b\u00fcy\u00fck Patagotitan \u00f6rnekleri bile \u00f6l\u00fcm an\u0131nda s\u00fcrekli b\u00fcy\u00fcme belirtileri g\u00f6stermektedir. Bu, Patagotitan en b\u00fcy\u00fck ke\u015ffedilen dinozor olmasa bile, muhtemelen t\u00fcr\u00fcn\u00fcn en b\u00fcy\u00fck temsilcisi olmad\u0131\u011f\u0131n\u0131 d\u00fc\u015f\u00fcnd\u00fcr\u00fcyor.<\/p>\n\n
Curry Rogers, ke\u015ffedilmeyi bekleyen daha b\u00fcy\u00fck dinozorlar\u0131n olabilece\u011fine inan\u0131yor. Bilinen t\u00fcm s\u00fcper dev sauropodlar\u0131n tam olgunlu\u011fa ula\u015fmadan \u00f6ld\u00fc\u011f\u00fcne dikkat \u00e7ekiyor, bu da daha da b\u00fcy\u00fck \u00f6rneklerin var olabilece\u011fini g\u00f6steriyor.<\/p>\n\n
Patagotitan mayorum’un ke\u015ffi, tarih \u00f6ncesi ya\u015fam\u0131n inan\u0131lmaz \u00e7e\u015fitlili\u011finin ve \u00f6l\u00e7e\u011finin bir kan\u0131t\u0131d\u0131r. Antik d\u00fcnya hakk\u0131ndaki bilgi aray\u0131\u015f\u0131n\u0131 ve dinozorlar\u0131n bug\u00fcn hala bizde uyand\u0131rd\u0131\u011f\u0131 b\u00fcy\u00fcleyici etkiyi vurgular.<\/p>\n\n
Paleontologlar yeni fosiller ke\u015ffetmeye ve bu devasa yarat\u0131klar hakk\u0131ndaki anlay\u0131\u015flar\u0131n\u0131 geli\u015ftirmeye devam ettik\u00e7e, ya\u015fam\u0131\u015f olan en b\u00fcy\u00fck hayvanlar\u0131n ola\u011fan\u00fcst\u00fc uyum sa\u011flama yetenekleri ve evrimsel tarihi hakk\u0131nda daha da derin bilgiler edinmeyi bekleyebiliriz.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
