Show transcript
Charles Darwin was an English scientist who studied nature.
In 1831, Darwin set sail to study the plants and animals living on the coasts of South America.
Darwin observed that the beak shape of finches was best suited to the food sources found on different Galapagos Islands.
Darwin’s observations led him to wonder how new species developed.
Darwin’s ideas about how living things adapt to suit their environments would eventually change people’s ideas.
