(C) Comparable anatomies, similar development, and similar DNA marks the similarities between dogs and wolves.
Step-by-step explanation:
Wolves and Dogs share much of the same genetics, so much that wolves can be bred to dogs to produce viable offspring. Because of the genetic similarities, both dogs and wolves share behaviors, physical attributes, social interaction, territorial instincts and forms of communication.
Morphological evidence and genetic evidence both suggest that wolves evolved during the Pliocene and Early Pleistocene eras from the same lineage that also led to the coyote, with fossil specimens indicating that the coyote and the wolf diverged from a common ancestor 1.5 million years ago.
The dog, Canis familiaris, is a direct descendent of the gray wolf, Canis lupus. In other words, dogs as we know them are domesticated wolves.
