Charles Darwin!

Charles Robert darwin was born on the year of 1809 in Shrewsbury, England. darwin is well known because of his theories of evolution and natural selection. What darwin believed was that every animal and even humans evolve during time in order to survive.

     

In 1831 darwin set out on an expedition on his HMS Beagle. On his expedition Charles darwin found fossils of extinct animals that looked very similar to animal that lived in his day time. he traveled through many islands all around the pacific ocean and he studied plants and animal and took samples so that he would study them. What he mainly noticed was that the creature he found were similar to other, they simply had minimal differences on each one of the birds or plant's characterisitcs.

     On his journey through studying the animals he came up with the theory of natural selection. Many of the creature he studied, as i told you, had slight differences and he saw that only one type of creature was in each island. Do that he studied the plants and the animals, he could se that many of the animals that werent in one isalnd were on another because of the fact that they had to adapt to their enviornment. Many of the birds had the perfect and exact features or characterisitcs they needed to be able to get the specific foods they needed. What this told Darwin was that nature had its own way of developing, and as nature developed, the animals and creature were forced to change and adapt to their food so that they would be able to survive.

    Charles darwin had developed an incredibly complex theory that took him years and years of work, but there was one big problem that stoped him from publisinh his book and it was Religion. On the times of Charles Darwin many poeple relied only on the Bible and that God created us just the way we are. if darwin were to publish his book he would offend many people, including his wife, and be sevierly attacked. he then came to a conclusion that god created this whole process. The human body and the earth are two things that are really, really complex, so why would God create something so complex so fast? by adding this to his book, people would not feel that offended.

    Charles Darwing was in the verge of finishing his book, when he find out that there is another person at the other side of the world who has developed the same theory, but darwin has more information so that gave him a lot of advantage. darwin submitted the book and was accepted. his theory is one that has made great advances in human history!
