C: The fossil, Archaeopteryx, can be seen as related to organisms on Earth today because of evidence found in the evolutionary tree, embryology, and DNA comparison.
E: The whooping crane and archaeopteryx both are very close in the evolutionary tree. They both continue to share the same characteristics such as cells have DNA, Bilateral Symmetry, Vertebres, Warm Blood, and have long legs. Thus making the Whooping crane the closet organism to the Archaeopteryx.

Looking at the embryology chart the tortoise and the chick (being the fossils closest relative) shows similar characteristics such as a longer tail in the first stage, than in the second stage the embryos have more of curved tail.
The percentage of matched DNA between the archaeopteryx and the third organism (can be considered the closest organism on the evolutionary tree- Whooping Crane) is 96%. The percentage of matched DNA between the second organism (Chinese Alligator) is 88%.

R: The archaeopteryx and modern day organisms can be seen as related through an evolutionary tree, embryology, and DNA comparison.

Evolutionary tree The archaeopteryx and the honey bee are related in the fact that they have cells, bilateral symmetry, and wings. The honey bee is not very closely related, but can still be traced as a “relative” on the evolutionary tree of an archaeopteryx. The wings make the honey bee analogous to the archaeopteryx because they both have wings in common, but are structured differently. The archaeopteryx and the whooping crane can be seen as very closely related on the evolutionary tree. This is because the whooping crane and archaeopteryx both have similar wing structure, leg structure, and overall body structure. This makes the organism’s structures homologous to each other.  Embryos shows the comparison of the living organisms and the Archeoptyrx. The tail of the Tortoise continues to get bigger in it’s embryos. In the first embryo, it shows the tail being some what long and the second and third embryo shows the tail getting longer and skinnier. The embryo that is closest to our fossil, the Archaeopteryx, is the chick. The chicken embryo is somewhat similar to the tortoise which shows that those organisms are in common. The chicks embryo is similar because both the tortoise and the chick have similar long tails in the beginning. In the second embryo, the tortoise and chick have similar curved tails. The way they are different, is by the tortoise’s tail continuing to get bigger. While the chick’s tail got smaller.  This means that the tortoise and chick have very similar DNA sequences of the MANX gene. One can conclude this because of their very similar tail development in the embryo. The MANX gene allows an organism’s tail to grow. Because the tortoise and chick have similar tails through the embryos, this means the MANX gene is also similar in both organisms. The DNA comparison can be used to show the relation between the organisms because we had to compare which organism was the close and the least close to the Archeopteryx. The Honey Bee will be organism 1 because it has 48% in common traits with our fossil. In the Evolutionary Tree, the Honeybee is lower, but not all the way at the bottom of the tree, which shows how the 48% makes since because it is a low percentage, but not as low as it could've been. Organism 2 would be the Chinese alligator because it has 88% in common traits with our fossil. In the Evolutionary Tree, the Chinese is higher in the tree, meaning it has more things in common with our fossil. Organism 3 would be the Whooping Crane because it has 96% in common traits with our fossil. In the Evolutionary Tree, The Whooping crane is at the top of the tree, meaning it has the most in common traits with the fossil.

Before the Archaeopteryx was born, the dinosaur called the “Raptor” had similar bone/arm structures as the Archaeopteryx. Showing that before the Archaeopteryx was born, the raptor was like the Archaeopteryx just without wings. In  that case, the Archaeopteryx gained adaptations/changes in their genes that allowed them to get wings to help them survive in the outside world. Thus, continuing the family tree to present day, the heron is a ancestor of the Raptor, and the Archaeopteryx because they share common arm structures and shows how the arm of the organisms went from no wings, to wings, and continued to have wings.
