Hint: Charles Robert Darwin was born on \[12\] February \[1809\] and died on \[{19^{th}}\] April \[1882\]. He was an English naturalist who proposed the scientific theory that all species have evolved from one or a few common ancestors through the process of natural selection. Darwin coined the term ‘natural selection’ which means the process by which organisms with favorable and advantageous variations survive and reproduce at a high higher rate than those without the advantageous variations.

Complete answer:
A. Gangotri: Gangothri is a town in Uttarkashi district in the state of Uttarakhand in India. Charles Robert Darwin was not shipped to travel to Gangotri.
B. Beagle: The theory of special creation was told by Conventional religious literature and this theory has three connotations. Firstly, all the living organisms were created today as such. Secondly, diversity always remained the same and the creation will remain the same in the future. Thirdly, the earth is about \[4000\] years old. These ideas were strongly challenged during the \[{19^{th}}\] century. Based on the observation, Charles Darwin traveled in the sailing ship called H.M.S. Beagle round the world.
C. Atlantic: Charles Robert Darwin was not shipped to travel to the Atlantic.
D. Seagull: Charles Robert Darwin was not shipped to travel to Seagull.
So, the correct answer is “Option B”.

Note:
After traveling to Beagle by Charles Darwin, he concluded that there is an existence of living forms that share similarities to varying degrees not only among themselves but also with life forms which existed millions of years ago. Many of these types of life forms which do not exist anymore. So many gradual evolutions that occur in life forms. Variation in characteristics was built by any organism. Those characteristics are not applicable to survive better in natural selection and such as climate, food, physical factors, etc.
