How were Darwin's finches different?

Answer 1

The Darwin finches were the finches of which Darwin studied and analysed so that he could notice the natural selection process. He stuided finches on different islands, all with different beaks. This showed that by natural selection these finches had adapted and evolved into their own environments.

Answer 2

The finches Darwin found on the Galapagos Islands varied mainly in beak size, as well as general size and feather colors and patterns.

This high variation in beak size was caused by the variety of different vegetation on each island that the birds migrated to. Some islands had more lush vegetation with smaller seeds, so those birds developed a smaller beak so they could eat those seeds.

Other islands had sparse vegetation, and in order for the seeds to live they had to store more nutrients, resulting in a larger average seed side. The birds that went to the islands with the larger seeds gradually developed larger beaks, and so the same species of finches that went to different islands became so different from each other that, over time, they became 2 different species.

Answer 3

The finches Darwin collected all had different sized beaks due to Evolution and the different islands they lived on. Long, thin beaks were suited for hard to reach bugs, while larger beaks were for tougher food.

Answer 4

their beaks were all created for different functions and uses

Answer 5

one belongs to Darwin and the other doesn't
