 \na.They show that ancient species share similarities with species now on Earth  \nb.They show evidence of species that are now extinct.  \nc.They are the primary source of evidence of natural selection.  \nd.Fossils reveal that many species have remained unchanged for millions of years.  \n17.Which of the following is an accurate comparison of derived traits and ancestral traits?
