It is clear that knowledge of dinosaurs comes from excavated bones. "Other clues" means the first blank is also a clue, so it must be something like "in addition". The only option that matches with this is "conjunction with".
The second blank could be either analyze of study, but no matching option is present. Belie is too negative, supplant means replace. So, the answer must be "trance".
