Where did Charles Darwin make most of his discoveries?
The Galapagos Islands
When Charles Darwin arrived in South America what observation did he make regarding rabbits?
The rabbits in South America were different from the rabbits in Europe.
Why did Darwin think the plants and animals of the Galapagos Islands were similar to those of the nearby coast of south America?
He thought the islands had been separated,which there is evidence of . So the animals and plants similar,but are suffering form geographic isolation.
Describe three of Darwin's observations about animals in south America and on the galapagos island?
1. Finches are anatomically similar but have different colours in different areas and their beaks depend upon their diet. 2. Tortoises are larger on the islands, where there are fewer predators. 3. Animals vary within species and reproduce to the extent that some must die
Compare and contrast natural selection and artificial selection?
Natural selection is when contemporary species rose from ancestors that survived due to their physical characteristics in their habitats. A well-known example is the Galapagos Islands and how the animals on the islands adapted to their environments. Darwin convinced the biology world that diversity in organisms came from evolution (descent without modification). Artificial selection is when humans intentionally breed animals for certain traits. Unlike natural selection, where only the fittest survive, artificial selection is for human's likings. Many crops that are grown are part of artificial selection.
What island group off the coast of South America was made famous by Charles Darwin?
Galapagos island was made famous by Charles Darwin because of the discovery of the Galapagos tortoise.
What idea is supported by Darwin's observation of local variation among toritoises in the galapagos islands?
adaptation
On his trip to the Galapagos Islands Darwin determined that animals on the islands?
Darwin determined that animals on the Galapagos Islands showed variations in their physical characteristics that were suited to their specific environments. This observation contributed to his theory of evolution by natural selection, as he realized that these adaptations allowed the animals to survive and reproduce in their unique island habitats.
What islands did Charles Darwin Make famous for animal life in South America?
the galapagos islands
What brought the galapagos islands significance to the worlds attention?
Because Darwin Evolution theory base on the birds of Galapagos
On his trip to the Galapagos Islands Darwin determined that animals on the islands .?
On his trip to the Galapagos Islands, Darwin determined that animals on the islands
What puzzled Darwin about the Galapagos finch?
Darwin was puzzled about the many adaptations of the finches on the Galapagos Islands
After Darwin studied the galapagos islands to where did he compare the islands plants and animals to?
he compared them to the cost of south america
Who went to the Galapagos Islands?
Charles Darwin went to the Galapagos Islands.
What island chain in south America was the source the of many of Darwin's insight?
the Galapagos Islands
Oh his trip to the galapagos islands Darwin determined that the animals on the islands?
They looked like the animals in south america.
How did Darwin explain the difference between species on the Galapagos Islands and on the mainland of South America?
Darwin proposed that species on the Galapagos Islands had evolved from a common ancestor found on the South American mainland. He observed variations in species on the islands that were adaptations to different environments, leading to the formation of new species over time through natural selection and isolation.
