4. What is your animal related to?
Talk about the different species that are related to your organism. Research and see if you can find past prehistoric animals that are related to yours or where it may have evolved from. Give the scientific names for your organism.
5. How does your animal reproduce?
Who cares for the babies? Asexual or sexual reproduction? Where do they build their nests? Do they lay eggs or have live birth? How many babies live to adulthood? What environment do they need in order to reproduce? Do they come back during certain times of the year?
