Summary Introduction
To determine: The procedure used by Podos to test the hypothesis on Darwin finches.
Introduction: Podos worked on Darwin's finches to evaluate the effect of the bird’s song on the mating patterns. He observed the effect of certain parameters on the reproductive physiology of the birds on the Galápagos Islands

Guide Questions:
1. Look again at the six embryos in their earliest stages. Describe the patterns you see. What physical
similarities exist between each of the embryos?
2. Does this suggest an evolutionary relationship? Explain how these embryos can be used as evidence of
a common ancestor between each of these six organisms.
