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.
How did 13 different species of finches form in the Galapagos islands?
There is not 13 different species of finches, there are one species. There are variations, but still one species. There are 250 different breeds of dogs, but still dog species
What did Darwin observe about the Galapagos Islands?
he looked at the different islands and found that the same species on every different island had adapted to their certain island
Explain how Ecuador's finches came to the Galapagos Islands?
The ancestor or ancestors of the finches on the Galapagos Islands arrived there most likely by being carried by the wind from the mainland of South America or Central America. These ancestors were of one species which evolved over time into 13 different species endemic to the Galapagos.
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.
How can continental drifts explain why unique species are often found on islands?
because the islands aren't part of the continents, so they were never connected to any of the continents, which have similar species because of Pangaea
What is a physical location where different species live?
the galapagos islands

Which of the galapagos islands do lava lizards live on?
Lava Lizards can be found on all the Galapagos Islands, however saying that, different species of these lizards are found on different Islands.
Life forms on the Galapagos islands?
No, Darwin believes that land animals traveled to the Galapagos Islands and adapted to the islands in different ways, causing them to become a different species.
Why do some Caribbean islands lack lizard species?
many species have evolved and since different types of lizards demand different environments they may have migrated through time to other islands
What did Darwin observe about the Galapagos Islands?
he looked at the different islands and found that the same species on every different island had adapted to their certain island
What did Darwin discovered in the Galapagos Islands?
Darwin discovered unique species of finches and tortoises in the Galapagos Islands that helped shape his theory of evolution by natural selection. He observed how these species had adapted to different environments on different islands, leading him to propose that species can evolve over time to better suit their surroundings.
How many species of butterfly live on the Christmas islands?
According to the Australian Government website for environment, there are twenty-eight different species of butterfly that inhabit the Christmas Islands.
What is an example for biogeography?
An example of biogeography is the study of how different species of animals are distributed on different islands in a chain, such as the Galapagos Islands. This can help scientists understand how species evolve and adapt to their specific environments over time.
