Biography: Charles Darwin

Charles Darwin was an English naturalist. I think that he was the most important scientist in history. He was born in Shrewsbury, Shropshire, England on 12 February 1809. In 1805, he studied medicine in the University of Edinburgh Medical School, but He quickly deserted by the surgery's lecture. In the 27th of December, 1831, he started this travel. The voyage lasted almost five years and, as FitzRoy had intended, Darwin spent most of that time on land investigating geology and making natural history collections. He traveled around the world and spent by different places, such as, the coast of South America, Brazil, Chile, etc, and the Galapagos’s Island. He collected many species of plants and animals; he later served to develop his theory, the theory of natural selection.
When the Beagle reached Falmouth, Cornwall, on 2 October 1836, Darwin was already a celebrity in scientific circles. Later, he published his book called On the Origin of Species, and here showed his theory; theory of natural selection, caused a scientific revolution.
Finally, Charles Darwin died 19th April of 1882 in Kent, England.
