Question

Darwin’s finches provide an excellent evidence in favour of organic evolution. These are related to which of the following evidences?

  1. Embryology  
  2. Palaeontology (or fossils)  
  3. Anatomy  
  4. Biogeography (or geographic distribution)  

The correct answer is: Palaeontology (or fossils)


    Biogeography is the study of the geographical distribution of life forms on earth. Darwin under took a voyage on the ship HMS Beagle. The ship travelled the Southern Hemisphere where life is most abundant and varied. Along the way, Darwin found different forms of life very different from those in England.
