How would Lamarck and Darwin have explained the a duck's webbed feet?

Answer 1

Lamarck and Darwin explained that the webbed feet were able to survive better than ducks without webbed feet

Answer 2

As a results of duck of geneticVariation in duck population.

*some had webbed feet than others

*as results of not having webbed feet to compete for their food

*duck with unWebbed feet Died

*duck with Webbed feet Survive this called Natural Selection

*The characteristics of Webbed feet acquired and pass on to the subsequently generations

*All duck had webbed feet

Answer 3

Webbed feet improves their ability to swim.

A duck has webbed feet so that it can push more water with its feet and therfore swim faster. Webbed feet help ducks move efficiently through water.
Ducks have web feet to aid them in swimming along the surface of water.

Answer 4

The most general answer to the question is that webbed feet are an adaptation to aquatic niches. In simple terms, birds with slightly webbed feet did better than birds without them, were better at raising offspring, and over many generations this resulted in a situation wherein most aquatic birds have webbed feet.

Answer 5

Larmarck believed in inheritance of acquired traits. Darwin believed in natural variations causing traits to become better adapted by selection pressure. Many generations of that stretching might produce webbed feet. Darwin thought that the ducks with slightly more webbing would be the ones that tended to survive and the webbing grew larger because natural variation would continue to amplify the webbing over many generations.
