Question

Which of these is a piece of evidence supporting the theory of evolution?

Answer 1

The C option is Correct.

• All the Galapagos finches exist on the same island.

Galapagos finches is a piece of evidence supporting the theory of evolution.

Darwin's finches comprise a group of 15 species endemic to the Galápagos (14 species) and Cocos (1 species) Islands in the Pacific Ocean. The group is monophyletic and originated from an ancestral species that reached the Galápagos Archipelago from Central or South America.

On his visit to the Galapagos Islands, Charles Darwin discovered several species of finches that varied from island to island, which helped him to develop his theory of natural selection.
