The correct statements that describe how the characteristics of different species of mammals reflect the evolutionary relationships among those species are: 1. **Shared anatomy among mammals, such as hair and mammary glands, suggests that a common ancestral species had these features.** 2. **Similarities in the DNA and protein structures of mammal species suggest that these species evolved from a common ancestor.** The statement **"Although all modern species of mammals share some features, the differences between them mean they cannot share a common ancestor"** is incorrect, as differences do not preclude the existence of a common ancestor; in fact, evolutionary theory posits that all species can have common ancestors.
