@I-VaPE-ChEMtrAiLS I don''t really know anything about biology so can't really comment, but he regularly just spouts nonsense about things he doesn't understand then gets all self righteous
it always seems to reduce to semantical prtoblems
@Σ5 bruh we are just doing long "no u"s we aren't getting anywhere
okay please just stop saying pedantic
how about condescending?
no we where doing a long back and forth of me trying to explain its simply a matter of what you work with and how you clasify things
its simply a difrent clasification system
But to say birds are reptiles is a massive oversimplification, just like phylogenetic trees in general
and you saying its wrong because it dosent match your system
untill the end tho
@Σ5 what's up with the spellings?
because im not good at spelling
oh okay that's cool
also i tend to type too fast
It's over simplified not incorrect, but birds are reptiles is my pet peeve
birds are reptiles what?
ok
did i just read that?
in phylogenic clasification they are
@dumblebore 🌈 they evolved from dinosaurs
oh
like the flying ones?
?
pterosaurs are not dinosaurs
small feathered Dino's became modern birds
well they still are dinosaurs in phylogenic clasification
oh
so how did they get to flying?
in linaean clasification idk
they use the feathers to insulate themselves and the eggs
the longer feathers where used for the eggs
my school taught me that aves is a separate class only, just like reptiles and mammals lol
eventually they where able to use the feathers to propell themselves
ah
in lineaen clasification aves is seperate
@Moist Mayonnaise to put it into a term you'd understand it's like arguing about aether being consistent with special realtivity. Small details that don't really matter but easy to be mistaken about
they used the feathers to propell themselves in aiding climbing trees
then eventually that led to gliding and then flying
That's only one theory, the other one is that they chased flying bugs and that's how I they began flying
well thast one way
