71. Read the following text and choose/pick the correct answer of following question

Anthropology is often called 'The child of Darwin'. In the Origin of Species By Means of Natural Selection or the Preservation of Favoured Races in the Struggle for Life, Darwin proved the theory of evolution that all the species, whether belonging to plant or animal life had developed from 'simple to complex forms'. The founding fathers of the discipline of anthropology, who were also contemporaries of Charles Darwin, were also contemplating about the evolution of human society and culture. As if, Darwin's book provided them a readymade road map to evolutionism. They all began to assert that human society and culture had also developed from 'simple to complex form'. They considered that human culture had also evolved from savagery through barbarism to civilization. Therefore Darwin is sometimes considered as the 'Father of Anthropology'. Later, however, this became a major ground of criticism for the mid 19th century evolutionists in anthropology. That they borrowed the idea from biological science and uncritically applied in social science. However, it is debatable whether Darwin influenced social science, or was himself influenced by social science. First, Darwin did not propound the theory of evolution; he only proved it. Secondly, Darwin expressed his acknowledgement to Thomas Malthus an economist, and Herbert Spencer a sociologist, whose ideas greatly influenced him and his doctrine. Darwin began with the idea that more organisms were born than survived to adulthood, a widely accepted concept derived from An Essay on the Principle of Population by Thomas Malthus. The great clue came from Malthus, who wrote that 'the rate of procreation among animals surpasses the means of subsistence, and that the weak must perish in the competition for survival'. Thus, Malthus work became cornerstone for Darwin's theory of 'natural selection', the theory that would account for the evidence for evolution. In addition to the above, Darwin also acknowledges Herbert Spencer in these words, "I have called this principle by the term Natural Selection, but the expression often used by Mr. Herbert Spencer of the 'Survival of the Fittest' is more accurate, and is sometimes equally convenient."

Question:

Why is Charles Darwin considered as the Father of Anthropology

Because he was an Anthropologist.

Because he was a contemporary of many Anthropologists.

Because he proved the theory of evolution that was adapted by his contemporary Anthropologists to prove the evolution of human society and culture.

Because he was influenced by many Anthropologists of his time.

Anthropology is often called 'The child of Darwin'. In the Origin of Species By Means of Natural Selection or the Preservation of Favoured Races in the Struggle for Life, Darwin proved the theory of evolution that all the species, whether belonging to plant or animal life had developed from 'simple to complex forms'. The founding fathers of the discipline of anthropology, who were also contemporaries of Charles Darwin, were also contemplating about the evolution of human society and culture. As if, Darwin's book provided them a readymade road map to evolutionism. They all began to assert that human society and culture had also developed from 'simple to complex form'. They considered that human culture had also evolved from savagery through barbarism to civilization. Therefore Darwin is sometimes considered as the 'Father of Anthropology'. Later, however, this became a major ground of criticism for the mid 19th century evolutionists in anthropology. That they borrowed the idea from biological science and uncritically applied in social science. However, it is debatable whether Darwin influenced social science, or was himself influenced by social science. First, Darwin did not propound the theory of evolution; he only proved it. Secondly, Darwin expressed his acknowledgement to Thomas Malthus an economist, and Herbert Spencer a sociologist, whose ideas greatly influenced him and his doctrine. Darwin began with the idea that more organisms were born than survived to adulthood, a widely accepted concept derived from An Essay on the Principle of Population by Thomas Malthus. The great clue came from Malthus, who wrote that 'the rate of procreation among animals surpasses the means of subsistence, and that the weak must perish in the competition for survival'. Thus, Malthus work became cornerstone for Darwin's theory of 'natural selection', the theory that would account for the evidence for evolution. In addition to the above, Darwin also acknowledges Herbert Spencer in these words, "I have called this principle by the term Natural Selection, but the expression often used by Mr. Herbert Spencer of the 'Survival of the Fittest' is more accurate, and is sometimes equally convenient."
