Detailed explanation-1: -Darwin’s finches (also known as the Galápagos finches) are a group of about 18 species of passerine birds. They are well known for their remarkable diversity in beak form and function.
Detailed explanation-2: -The Galapagos Finches or Darwin Finches are among the most renowned species in the world within the study of evolution.
Detailed explanation-3: -In this island Darwin noticed that most species were similar but different from other in the other islands, giving enough evidence to theorize that species change and this is related to their feeding and surroundings. He collected finches that helped him to understand this resolution.
Detailed explanation-4: -2. What did Charles Darwin study in the Galapagos Islands? The most famous fauna of the Galapagos Islands are the iguanas, giant tortoises and finches.
Detailed explanation-5: -However, the Galapagos finches helped Darwin solidify his idea of natural selection. The favorable adaptations of Darwin’s Finches’ beaks were selected for over generations until they all branched out to make new species. These birds, although nearly identical in all other ways to mainland finches, had different beaks.
