Why was Darwin interested in finches?
The Galápagos Islands had finches that once shared a common ancestry. Darwin found that finches on one island had, over many generations, developed and adapted in differing ways to finches from other islands.
How are new species formed?
New species can arise as a result of isolation. This is where two populations of a species become geographically separated. For example, Charles Darwin described speciation of finches this way.Darwin studied the wildlife on the Galápagos Islands (a group of islands on the equator, almost 1,000 km west of Ecuador). He noticed that the finches (Songbirds) on the different islands were similar to each other.However, the finches showed wide variations in their size, beaks and claws from island to island - for example, their beaks were different depending on the local food source. Darwin concluded that, because the islands are so distant from the mainland, the finches that had arrived there in the past and had changed over time.
What animals were examined by Darwin on the Galapagos islands?
the animal Darwin examined were finches on the Galapagos islands (at least finches were the main thing he studied)
