On two small islands in the Galapagos, each island has a different species of finches, but these two species are descendants of the same common ancestor. The finches on one island have large beaks and feed mostly on large seeds that are abundant on that island. The finches on the other island have small beaks and feed mostly on small seeds that are abundant on that island. Use Darwin's theory of evolution by natural selection to explain how these two species evolved from that common ancestor.

00:03 Charles darwin concluded that the 13 species of finches on the galapagos islands, and our choices are, were identical to 13 species in northwestern south america, probably evolved from one ancestral south american species, had adapted to the same food source, were all migrated to the island for temperate weather.
00:26 Well, his main idea concerning the finches was the idea of adaptive radiation, which means that he believed that these finches all came from a common source, a common ancestor, if you will.
00:44 And he believed that they adapted out, you know, because of a need for different food sources on the different islands.
00:53 You know, some islands had more insects to feed on...
