During his voyage on the HMS Beagle, Charles Darwin observed the geological formation of the Andes Mountains in South America. He noted the presence of fossilized marine shells at high altitudes, indicating that these mountains had once been underwater. This observation supported the idea of gradual geological change over time, aligning with his theories on evolution and the slow processes shaping the Earth’s surface.
What else can I help you with?
What did Charles Darwin observe?
Charles Darwin observed a wide variety of plant and animal species during his travels, noting how they adapted to their environments over time. This observation led to his theory of evolution by natural selection, which revolutionized our understanding of how species evolve.
What is an example of a migrating animal?
well, 1 example is the monarch butterflies. They have a huge migration year round Each year thousands of Godwits fly from New Zealand to Eastern Siberia and Alaska. They leave NZ in late March and return in late September - November.
What was Charles Darwin's first piece of evidence?
On his travels he found that many species of animals were similar, but different even though they were not in the same environment. I suggest you read On the Origin of Species or pick up a good book on Darwin. There are also books specifically about his time on the Beagle.
Which big cat has the loudest roar?
lion it travels 5 miles
How many miles does penguins walk across Antarctica while breeding?
Your answer depends on the location of the penguin colony. Near the Ross Sea, for example, Emperor Penguins can travel across about 60 Km of ice in order to reach open water to feed. Once she lays the egg, the female travels to open water to feed. She transfers the egg to the male's feet before leaving them. Ultimately, she returns -- about six to eight weeks later, and transfers the egg from his feet to her feet. Then the male travels about the same distance to feed in open water.
What is one example of biological variation that Darwin observed in his travels?
plant
What is one example of evidence from darwins travels that supports an ancient earth?
He found fossil shells of marine organisms high up in the Andes mountains.
What evidence is there that sound travels through solids?
Sound travels through solids because solids have molecules that can transmit vibrations. This can be observed in activities such as tapping a table and hearing the sound travel through it. Additionally, studies have shown that sound waves propagate faster in solids compared to liquids or gases.
What does the Doppler Effect provide evidence for?
The Doppler effect proves that sound travels in waves.
What type of wave only travels through solids and what does this give evidence of?
It's an 'S wave'. Im not entirely sure what it gives evidence of but i believe that it is a seismic wave.
Which is an example of radiation?
An example of radiation is sunlight. Sunlight is a form of electromagnetic radiation that travels from the sun to Earth.
Evidence on why should Pluto not be classed as a planet?
because pulto travels round the solar sytem and its a dead planet !
Physical explanation for why the sound of thunder from a lighting strike appears after the actual bolt of lightning is observed?
Because light travels faster than sound
What isthermal energy travels through space from the sun to Venus an example of?
radiation
What does Michael palin don to follow phileas foggs example?
he travels light
What evidence did Isaac Newton use to support his particle explanation of light?
Light travels in a straight line, and it cast a shadow.
What is an example of Quantitative?
