c. It is not proven that organisms can change into other ______________, ex. A monkey into a person
d. _________________âthe process by which species gradually change over time.

ii. Compare body structures and _______________ makeup to fossils.
c. Compare body structures to other ___________
d. Compare early development of different organisms. Ex. Humans and rabbits go through similar stages in
their development before ______________. This means they may share evolutionary history.
e. Primarily rely on info about the chemical makeup of cells to determine evolutionary history. The more
closely related the 2 species, the more similar the __________________ that make up their cells are.
F. Using the Classification System
