What did Darwin notice about the animals on the Galapagos island?

Darwin knew that the birds are the same. since they lived in separate islands, the finches adapted to their environment and had a mutation. all of the birds have a common ancestry. each finch has a separate beak because they needed to get food in a way. if the beak is thin and small, they can take their food from cracks or small areas. each bird had adapted to their environment with their beaks. that's what Darwin noticed. each animal adapts or adjust to their environment around them. see it, remember it, and know it. important concept of evolution


'Why is the galapagos tortoise endangered'?

The Galapagos tortoise is endangered because people eat the eggs they lay and the adult tortoises are hunted for their big shells. Also, the pollution of the Galapagos islands is hurting the Galapagos tortoise as well. Actually, this species is not endangered, but considered "Vulnerable". Strictly protected by law, they are no longer hunted, and their numbers are again increasing. Ten of fifteen subspecies still survive there, and captive born hatchlings are released each year. The islands there are not under any current threat from pollution.

What arguments did Charles Darwin use to prove his theory?

The foundation of Darwin's theory of evolution rests upon his observation of a species of bird that lived on the Galapagos Islands in the Pacific Ocean. The unusual feature of the birds were that they had various beak sizes. Darwin suggested that this change was a process brought about by the sheer survival urge of the species over a long period of time. This assumption is partly true but I believe all life including humans have a mechanism built into the DNA(the complete blue-print of the physical body) to allow such changes of adaption to a changing environment for survival to occur. Also Darwin suggested that these changes would need to take thousand through to millions of years but this is incorrect as well. Slight changes could take from two to three generations. It is beyond all intelligence to reason how Charles Darwin went from his observation of the Galapagos Island birds to developing a theory which suggests that humans are the sons and daughters of apes who were the sons and daughters of slugs which owe their existence to a molecule and a source of energy that started its motor running. My guess is that Charles had someone whispering in his ear and the story he told sounded quite plausible, in fact exciting and true. Evolution as prescribed by Darwin has nothing to do with the generation of species and life, it has to do with an alternative view to the belief that there is a Creator, a Supreme Being, a God of immense and total power and all knowledge. Evolution is the, 'seed of doubt', sown by Lucifer to appease his followers who are offended by the idea of a God, and Jesus Christ, a savior of mankind; As there is a living God, there is a leader of the enemies of God. Many pro-evolutionist have been caught out falsifying proof to support Darwin's theory and you have to ask, why? Why invent a missing link between man and ape? Why make documentaries, news stories, school books etc that teach and speak of evolution as fact when it's simply false? Another one of many life conspiracies people need to deal with.>


What opinion did Emma Darwin have about Charles Darwin's work?

Emma was a religious woman. She was disturbed by his theory. But she loved him and was proud of his accomplishments. Charles Darwin was a great father, His many children were involved in his work. He would take them on collecting expeditions in the vast grounds of his home. His children loved him, and this must have made Emma happy. There is evidence that one of the reasons Darwin spent years delaying the publication of his book on evolution, was because he was afraid this would upset his wife. But eventually he was forced to publish.
