Dinosaurs existed during the Mesozoic era. But no given species of dinosaur lived through the entire Mesozoic.

Dinosaurs lived only on land.

The Cretaceous period was at the end of the Mesozoic.

During the Cretaceous, the southern half of some region was covered by water.

Plesiosaurs were swimming reptiles that lived only during the Cretaceous.

During the Cretaceous period, dinosaurs couldn’t have lived in the southern half of the region. (It was covered by water, and dinosaurs lived only on land.)

This is a Must Be False question, so any answer choice that contradicts this inference must be false.

Could be true. We can infer that dinosaurs didn’t inhabit the southern half, but we’re told nothing about the northern half. It’s possible dinosaurs inhabited that region. And although no single species lived throughout the Mesozoic, it’s possible that dinosaurs as a whole did.

Could be true. We know plesiosaurs lived during the Cretaceous and were swimming reptiles, but we don’t know where they lived. Although the southern half of the region was covered by water, nothing suggests that plesiosaurs had to live there. They might have all lived elsewhere.

Must be true. Plesiosaurs lived only during the Cretaceous period, not before.

Could be true. We don’t know anything about the northern half of the region, or where dinosaurs lived. It’s possible they all lived in other regions entirely.

Must be false. The Mesozoic era includes the Cretaceous period, during which time the southern half of the region was covered entirely by water. Dinosaurs lived only on land. So dinosaurs could not have lived in the southern half of the region during that time.
