Answer 2

Hello!

The order is: Greeks and Romans, Erasmus Darwin, Thomas Malthus, Lamarck and the great Charles Darwin. Letter D, then.

The Greeks developed, with Miletus, a primitive theory, indicating a possible relationship between man and animals. Erasmus Darwin and Malthus (the first was Charles's grandfather), developed theories that grounded the naturalistic idea. Lamarck brings erroneous concepts, but they are fundamental for Darwin, finally, to develop his Origin of the Species.
