The fossil record will best answer the question: **"Which animal is older?"**
The fossil record provides information about the ages of various organisms based on the layers of rock in which they are found, allowing scientists to determine the relative ages of fossils. While it may provide some clues about the relationship of the animals to modern species and potentially about their adaptations or survival, the primary focus of the fossil record is on age and stratigraphy.
