Charles Darwin concluded that the 13 species of finches on the Galápagos Islands were identical to 13 finch species in northwestern South America, 600 miles to the east. They probably evolved from one ancestral South American species and had all adapted to the same food sources.

In the Galapagos Islands, Charles Darwin found many different species of finches (a type of bird) that seemed closely related. He proposed that the birds had all evolved from a common ancestor. Match the bird beaks below to the most likely food source. Explain in the chart below how the five finches pictured above most likely came to have different beaks than each other and the extinct finch.
