Q According to more recent estimates, how long might Liopleurodon have grown?

- A Up to around 5–7 meters (16–23 feet)
- B Up to around 15–20 meters (49–66 feet)
- C Up to around 25 meters (82 feet)
A Up to around 5–7 meters (16–23 feet)
It was portrayed in a television program as a gigantic creature measuring around 25 meters (82 feet) in length. However, subsequent research has estimated its maximum length at approximately 5–7 meters (16–23 feet).
Because only a small number of fossils have been discovered, uncertainty remains about its exact maximum size.
