The correct answer is Crocodiles

Cladograms, also sometimes called the phylogenetic trees are diagrams of evolutionary relationships between species.

These diagrams are constructed by biologists based on genetic and anatomical similarities between species.

In the cladogram of vertebrates presented below you can see that the birds and the crocodiles are placed on the same branch (clade) which indicates that they are closely related.
