The influence of providing an explanatory mechanism for what was obvious to Darwin; species arose and species went extinct.
AnswerCharles Lyell, lawyer and geologist who developed the theory of uniformitarianism in geology is commonly recognised as the one person who had the most profound influence on Darwin. Captain Fitzroy with whom Darwin sailed on his famous voyage on the Beagle, gave Darwin a copy of Lyell's 'Principles of Geology'. It is difficult to say who had the second greatest influence, but certainly his grandfather Erasmus Darwin, who himself wrote on Evolution had a great influence.

Charles Darwin was married to his cousin, Emma Wedgwood. They married on January 29, 1839, and had ten children together. Their relationship was characterized by mutual support and companionship, despite the personal challenges Darwin faced regarding his scientific work and beliefs. Emma was a significant influence in his life, helping to balance his scientific pursuits with family life.
Darwin feared not recognizing his own bias or allowing his personal beliefs to influence his scientific work. He was also concerned about the impact his theories might have on society and on prevailing religious beliefs.
Darwin read the book Lamarck wrote and said that he did not get one idea from it as it was ludicrous in content. So, Lamarck would be the one scientist that did not influence Darwin according to Darwin.

It didn't. Darwin simply assumed that, whatever the biological and palaeontological data turned out to suggest, there must have been enough time for it to occur in. If anything, Darwin's theses affected how naturalists of the time gauged the age of the Earth.
Darwin, Freud, Einstein, and other thinkers have all shaped 20th and 21st Century thought.
The Galapagos Islands had the most influence on Darwin's theory of evolution. During his visit to the islands, he observed different species of finches and tortoises with unique adaptations that supported his ideas about natural selection and species evolution.
