Answer:

Clarence Darrow defended John Scopes in the 1925 trial.

Explanation:

The Scopes Monkey Trial (Tennessee v. Scopes) was a resounding legal case in the United States that put the Butler Act to the test. This act established that it was illegal in every educational establishment in the state of Tennessee "to teach any theory that denies the history of the Divine Creation of men as it is explained in the Bible, and replaced by the teaching that man descends from an order of inferior animals". The Monkey Trial is the most famous legal case in the history of the ideological battle between creationism and evolutionism.

John Scopes, a high school teacher, was accused on May 5, 1925 of teaching evolution using a chapter of a textbook that was based on ideas inspired by Charles Darwin's book The Origin of Species. The trial involved two of the most brilliant lawyers of the time. On the one hand William Jennings Bryan, member of the congress, former Secretary of State, and three times presidential candidate was in charge of the prosecution and accusation, while the prominent litigation lawyer Clarence Darrow led the defense.

Answer:
