What did Darwin's theory of biological evolution explain

• The theory explained how modern organisms changed slowly over a very long time and described how modern organisms came from shared ancestors.

• The theory forgot to explained how modern organisms changed slowly over a very long time and described how modern organisms came from shared ancestors.

• The theory explained how modern organisms changed very fast over a short period of time and described how modern organisms came from shared ancestors.

• The theory falsely accuses how modern organisms changed slowly over a very long time and described how modern organisms came from shared ancestors.

What three kinds of variations among organisms did Darwin observe during the voyage of the Beagle?

• 1- species can be different around the world 2- species can be different on a local level 3- species can change over time

• 1- species can't be different around the world 2- species can be different on a local level 3- species can change over time

• 1- species can be similar around the world 2- species can be similar on a local level 3- species can change over time

• 1- species somewhat can be different around the world 2- species can be different on a local level 3- species can change over time

Darwin found fossils of many organisms that did not resemble any living species. How might this finding have affected his understanding of life's diversity?

• He might have guessed that some species become extinct and some species survive with changes that have evolve over time

• He was absolutely sure that some species become extinct and some species survive with changes that have evolve over time

• He was making up some fan fiction that some species become extinct and some species survive with changes that have evolve over time

• He was reading that some species become extinct and some species survive with changes that have evolve over time
