Did some dinosaurs give birth to live young?
B
How did the egg disappear?
C
How old is the fossil?

Explanation

A baby dinosaur fossilized inside its mother without an egg raises the question of whether some dinosaurs gave birth to live young. That is the most direct question prompted by the find. The fossil’s age or what happened to an egg could be investigated, but neither is as directly suggested by this discovery.
