Darwin Theory
1.Alfred Russel Wallace
2.The person I believe that had the most influence over Darwin is Alfred Russel Wallace. He was born in the United Kingdom he was consider a British naturalist he shared his ideas with Darwin and they similar theory. "He sent Darwin his theory in 1858,which , to Darwin's shock, nearly replicated Darwin's own." By 1855 Alfred came to conclusion that living things do evloved Darwin reached the same conclusion but years later.

3.(Individuals do not evolve. Populations do) The influence that Alfred Russel Wallace had on this quote was he was the actually the one that came up with Individuals do not evolve , Populations do before Darwin did which Darwin proved to be right.Alfred landed in what is now Indonesia where animals didn't exist in any other place. He realized animals be shaped by where they live.
4.Do I think Darwin could have done it with Alfred , I don't think he could have done it because like they say two heads are better then one in this case more heads are better then one because Darwin theory needed a lot of researcher and study to prove his theory.This theory took Darwin years to do and Alfred helped and gave ideas to Darwin and also gave him birds so Darwin can study them for his theory.
5.The attitude of the church is probably the same attitude now only difference back then religion was a huge thing to everyone so I could only iamgine how Darwin might been scared to publish his theory .Look at what happen to Galileo he forced to send himself in and being trial.
