EVOLUTION FOLDABLE
Definitions
Species: A group of organisms that are closely related and can mate to
produce fertile offspring.
The fossil record provides evidence about the order in which species have
existed.
Scientists examine the fossil record to figure out the relationships between
extinct and living organisms by looking for similarities between the species.
The most closely related species would be toothed whales and baleen whales.
