Read the following passage then choose the one answer A, B, C or D which you think the correct

Dinosaurs were reptiles that lived during a period of earth’s history called the Mesozoic Era, which is known as the Age of Reptiles. The first dinosaurs appcared more than 200 million ycars ago. For many millions of years, they dominated the land with their huge size and strength. Then about 65 million years ago, they died out rather suddenly, never to reemerge.

The word dinosaur comes from two Greek words meaning “terrible lizard”. Dinosaurs were not lizards, but their appcarancc could be truly terrifying. The biggest ones weighed more than ten times as much as a mature elephant and nearly equaled the size of most modem—day whales. The famous kinds of dinosaurs, including the brontosaur and tyrannosaurus rex, reached 80 to 90 feet in length. Not all dinosaurs were giants, however, some were actually no larger than a chicken.

Scientists still do not know what caused dinosaur to disappear. One theory involves a change in the earth’s climate. It is believed that temperature dropped significantly towards the end of the Crctaccous Period. Too large to hibemate and not having fur or feathers for protection, it is possible that the climate became too chilly for dinosaurs. In contrast, other species having protection, such as the mammals and birds, were able to survive.

Question:According to the passage, what is true about the size of dinosaurs?

A. It was rather uniform

B. It guaranteed their survival

C. It made them the largest creatures ever on earth

D. It varied quite greatly
