Foreign scientist inventor of Charles Darwin?

The foreign scientist who influenced Charles Darwin's theory of evolution through natural selection was Alfred Russel Wallace. Wallace independently developed a similar theory to Darwin's, prompting them to present their ideas jointly in 1858. Darwin is credited with the theory of evolution by natural selection, but Wallace also made significant contributions to the field.


How did the ideas of scientists before Darwin influence Darwin ideas?

Scientists before Darwin, such as Lamarck and Lyell, influenced Darwin's ideas by presenting concepts like geology and the idea of species change over time. Lamarck's theory of acquired characteristics and Lyell's principles of uniformitarianism provided a basis for Darwin to develop his theory of evolution through natural selection. Darwin built upon these ideas by incorporating them into his own theory, which became the foundation of modern evolutionary biology.


Was Darwin influenced by Mendels ideas about genetics?

No, Darwin knew nothing about Mendel's ideas and work. His, Darwin's, heritability concept was absolutely wrong. There is a legend that Darwin had a copy of Mendel's work in his desk but could not read German. The veracity of this story is often challenged.
