Darwin writes on how through a process of millions of years‚ through the effects of man and the effects of nature‚ species have had a trial and error experiment ongoing. It is through these trials that the natural world has developed

Since then‚ Darwin’s finches have been studied extensively for the insight

Chapter 9 – On the Imperfection of the Geographical Record Through chapter nine‚ Darwin again addresses some holes within his theory. In this chapter‚ he refutes claims that may arise that involve fossils and other geographical evidence. The claim states that‚ if Darwin’s theory were to be complete and true‚ that paleontologists should be able to find fossils depicting the advancement of a species throughout the ages. Moreover‚ they should be able to find links between one species and another through

He has a belief that there is a missing link. Darwin knew that natural selection was systematic and for the creation of new
