Did all famous dinosaurs live at the same time?

No. The Triassic, Jurassic and Cretaceous together span almost 186 million years, so many famous species were separated by vast stretches of time.

Did the Cretaceous world look different from the Jurassic because continents, climates and plant life had changed?

Yes. As Pangaea continued to break apart and flowering plants became more important, habitats grew more varied.

Did dinosaurs eat the same kinds of plants in every period?

No. In the Jurassic, conifers, cycads, ginkgos and ferns were especially important, while flowering plants became a growing part of many ecosystems in the Cretaceous.
