The reading passage discusses three theories which explain the extinction of dinosaurs, notwithstading, the lecturer casts doubts on each one of them.
First of all, on the one hand, the author in the reading passage stated that a soar in temperature caused dinosaurs testes to malfunction. As a result, male dinosaurs became sterile. Therefore, dinosaurs died out since they could no longer reproduce. On the other hand, the speaker vehemently asserts that it cannot be established whether dinosaurs were sterile or not. Soft tissue such are testes do not remain after fossilization and hence it cannot be proved if these organs were functioning properly.
Secondly, the reading passage mentions that dinosaurs became extinct due to an overdose of plants with psycho-active agents, since they were not able to neither detoxify the substances nor taste its notorious and dangerous bitterness, due to faulty livers and tongues respectively. Nevertheless, the speaker states that dinosaurs' tongues and livers did not stand the test of time. He argues that had the researchers being able to analyze these reptiles' organs, they would be able to identify how they work. Furthermore, he mentions that Angiosperms flourished long before the extinction of dinosaurs and hence it is unlikely that these plants provoked dinosaurs' demise.
Finally, a large comet which hit the Earth, reports the author, caused dust to rise into the atmosphere. This blocked sunlight and provoked a sudden, unprecedented drop in world temperatures that ended up causing a mass extinction of dinosaurs. Conversely, the speaker argues that even though an asteroid striking the Earth is an undebatable fact, 52 species of dinosaurs thrived for as long as 300 thousand years after the impact. Hence, according to the listening passage, the impact from a large asteroid itself did not cause dinosaurs to die out.
In conclusion, throughout the listening passage, the professor holds a skeptical position regarding the theories discussed by the author.

The reading passage discusses three theories which explain the extinction of dinosaurs, notwithstanding, the lecturer casts doubts on each one of them.
First of all, on the one hand, the author in the reading passage stated that a soarignificant increase in temperature caused dinosaurs testes to malfunction.
As a result, male dinosaurs became sterile.
Therefore, dinosaurs died out since they could no longer reproduce.
On the other hand, the speaker vehemently asserts that it cannot be established whether dinosaurs were sterile or not.
Soft tissue such ares those of testes do not remain after fossilization and hence it cannot be provedn if these organs were functioning properly or not.
This is the first time I've heard of this theory.
Secondly, the reading passage also mentions that dinosaurs became extinct due to an overdose of plants with psycho-active agents, since they were not able to neither detoxify the substances nor taste its notorious and dangerous bitterness, due to faulty livers and tongues respectively.
I've never heard this theory before either. Interesting.
Nevertheless, the speaker states that dinosaurs' tongues and livers did not stand the test of time.
He argues that had the researchers beingen able to analyze these reptiles' organs, they would be able to identify how they work.
This is subjunctive case so that's why we use the "been able."
Furthermore, he mentions that Angiosperms flourished long before the extinction of dinosaurs and hence it is unlikely that these plants provoked the dinosaurs' demise.
Finally, the author reports that a large comet which hit the Earth, reports the author, caused dust to rise into the atmosphere.
I have heard of this theory. :)
This blocked sunlight and provoked a sudden, unprecedented drop in world temperatures that ended up causing a mass extinction of dinosaurs.
Conversely, the speaker argues that even though an asteroid striking the Earth is an undebatable fact, 52 species of dinosaurs thrived for as long as 300 thousand years after the impact.
Hence, according to the listening passage, the impact from a large asteroid itself did not cause dinosaurs to die oubecome extinct.
Your sentence is grammatically correct but it's more for colloquial speech. For writing purposes, this is what we'd use.
In conclusion, throughout the listening passage, the professor holds a skeptical position regarding the theories discussed by the author.
