Document Summary
This film will be tested on quiz 1 on october 23, 2012. Darwin was being challenged about his constant doubts about the divine law" which indicated that it is god"s will as to how everything was made, as he proposed that there probably is an evolution of new species. From a common ground niche, newer niches evolved over time, from what he discovered on the different birds he caught during his expedition. All living things on earth evolved from one branching tree of life". The different finches he brought back have had unique beak forms adapted to different foods in the island, and were descended with modifications from a common ancestral populations that"s been flown over from the mainland. He applied this vision to all of life. Animal populations are forced to adapt to the environment so they evolve over time.
