Scientists think that the dinosaurs went extinct because an asteroid hit the Earth and created a giant dust cloud that covered up the Sun. Diego doesn’t think this explanation makes sense. He says, “Some dinosaurs ate other dinosaurs to get their energy. Why would removing the Sun cause the carnivores to go extinct?” Explain to Diego why carnivores would go extinct without the Sun.
Carnivores would go extinct without the Sun because they get their energy from the Sun. Carnivores do not produce their own food or eat green plants, but the organisms that they eat get their energy from green plants. The energy can be traced back to the Sun.
