The study of developmental biology shows that A. closely related species will show similarities in embryos. B if species have changed over time, their genes should have changed. C closely related species will show similarities in amino acid sequences. D distantly related species will show similarities in anatomy.

It shows that these organisms share a common ancestor. b. It provides evidence that these organisms eat the same foods. c. It shows that these organisms share the same habitat. d. It provides evidence that these organisms suffered a genetic mutation.
