The image shows the beak shapes of four different finches observed by Charles Darwin on the Galapagos Islands. Darwin observed that broad-beaked finches prefer to eat large, hard seeds, while finches with narrow beaks eat small, soft seeds. What did Charles Darwin infer from this study that led to the development of the Theory of Evolution? O Finches with broad beaks have higher survival rates than finches with narrow beaks. O Finches with narrow beaks gradually evolve broader beaks to feed on all types of seeds. O The finches evolved from different ancestors with different shapes of beaks. O The finches evolved from a common ancestor and developed different beak shapes adapt to the food available.
