Answer:

Most of the species have become extinct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Most of the species whose evidence is preserved in the fossil record have become extinct.

A wide variety of life-forms has existed in the past. Most of these organisms have long since become extinct, but clues about what they looked like and their activities are preserved in the fossil record.
