D) FALSE, because turtles share a more recent common ancestor with birds than with mammals
Explanation:
There is much evidence about the genetic relationship between birds and reptiles, some physiological, such as the fact that both excrete uric acid and the circulatory system of birds is very similar to that of crocodiles, for example.
In addition, both lay eggs and in them there is the internal amniotic fluid, which nourishes the embryo.
Much scientific research indicates that the birds are related to prehistoric reptiles that had feathers, elongated claws and some also had the ability to fly.
