What ideas were changing in the scientific community at the time of Darwin's travels? How might those new ideas influenced Darwin?

Answer and Explanation:

At the time of Darwin's travels, the scientific community was beginning to abandon ideas linked to creationism to adopt more scientific and testable concepts, less linked to religiosity. Darwin was very influenced by these new concepts and decided to study a way to apply them to the biological diversity that planet earth presented. He wanted to explain this diversity through scientific data, obtained by experiments and logical reasoning, without the interference of creationist concepts and that would show how life on earth changes over the years and how species of living beings were created. This was one of the kicks that made him start his travels and his studies on biological evolution.
