Answer questions 429 and 430 on the basis of the following passage. 1 Charles Darwin was born in 1809 at Shrewsbury England. 2 He was a biologist whose famous theory of evolution is important to philosophy for the effects it has had about the nature of man. 3 After many years of careful study Darwin attempted to show that higher species had come into existence as a result of the gradual transformation of lower species and that the process of transformation could be explained through the selective effect of the natural environment upon organisms. 4 He concluded that the principles of natural selection and survival of the fittest govern all life. 5 Darwin s explanation of these principles is that because of the food supply problem the young born to any species compete for survival. 6 Those young that survive to produce the next generation tend to embody favorable natural changes which are then passed on by heredity. 7 His major work that contained these theories is On the Origin of the Species written in 1859. Many religious opponents condemned this work. 429. Which of the following corrections should be made in punctuation a. Part 1 Insert a comma after Shrewsbury. b.
