"Fossils can provide information about when life forms existed."
Explanation: fossils in stratigraphic layers and with radiometric dating give timing for when organisms lived. The other statements are false: fossils do help infer relatedness and can show life cycles/behavior (e.g., growth series, trace fossils), but they do not record the entire evolutionary process because the fossil record is incomplete.
