well wat have you got so far???
i havnt done the topic yet, but i'm guessing you could use amino acid sequencing provides evolutionary relationships etc etc sorry i'm not much help =[[

social influences, MASSIVE DARWIN/WALLACE alarm going off there
For your original question:
From what I remember, my teacher mentioned that people used to base evolutionary relationships on the anatomy of animals. However, with the development of DNA hybridisation and such, we can revise these relationships.
For example, we used to think that lizards and crocodiles were more closely related to each other than with birds. Now though, we know that crocodiles are more related to birds than lizards (I think that's right, but my memory is pretty screwy and I didn't write it down Oo You might want to check up on this example).

What do they mean by "Historical development of the theories..."?

How about the mapping of the human genome?
Google "genome project"

A recent one could be:

The discovery of DNA and protien sequencing provides an independent branch of evidence in support of evolution.
By comparing the same protien which is found in all living forms a branching diagram could be formed independantly of physical characterists, and fossil record.
This method also reveals interesting relationships in some branches of animals. For example it show that whales and dolphins are more closely related to cows, camels and pigs than horses, elephants and sea cows.
Here's a few links
