There is not 13 different species of finches, there are one species.
There are variations, but still one species.

What were the species Darwin saw on the Galapagos islands?
finches
What species did Darwin observe on the Galapagos Islands?
Finches, amomg others...
The observation by Darwin that finches belonging to different species on the Galapagos Islands have many similar physical characteristics supports the conclusion that these finches?
originated from a common ancestor
What species did Darwin find on the Galapagos Islands?
Geographic isolation of a common ancestral species of finches
Why did Darwin find 9 different species of finches on the Galapagos Islands?
The species of finches Darwin found were so varied because they had migrated over time to islands of different vegetation, and they adapted to better suit their new environment. Over time, the finches became so different from each other that they turned into new species.
Are finches in Galapagos islands similar?
No, evolution has created different species of finches on the Galapagos Islands. There are 15 different species that are found on the Galapagos islands.
What are the 13 different species of birds that are related in the Galapagos islands called?
Darwin's Finches
What were the species Darwin saw on the Galapagos islands?
finches
Why did Darwin say finches on the Galapagos islands new species of finches?
That they were evoled from on specie of finches.
What type of speciation occurred among the Galapagos Islands finches?
The type of speciation that occurred among the Galapagos Islands finches is called "allopatric" speciation. Allopatric comes from roots meaning "other country". The immigrant finches, and many other birds and animals, were very isolated from other populations of the same species on the individual Galapagos Islands. The finches developed into at least 13 different species of finch on the islands.

How did the Galapagos finchs differ from the finches on the other islands?
The question as phrased confuses what Darwin found. He did not find one species of finch on the Galapagos Islands and different species on another set of islands. He found different species of finches on different islands within the Galapagos archipelagos. Some had larger beaks for cracking seeds and some had smaller beaks for capturing insects. Some were physically larger and others were smaller. The primary differences between the finches correlated almost perfectly with the predominant food source available to them on each individual island.
How geometric isolalation of common ancestral species of finches has led to the development of 14 different species of finches in the galapagos island?
Geometric isolation of common ancestral species of finches has led to the development of 14 different species of finches in the Galapagos Island due to the concept of diversification.
What island did Charles Darwin go to discover finches?
Since Darwin found many species of plants he found many species of finches. Those species, just like the warbler finch, were found on the Galapagos Islands.
