Tennyson's line of poetry "nature, red in tooth and claw" is misconstrued by many evolutionists as a reference to Darwin's theory of evolution. The poem in which the line appears was published in 1850, but Darwin kept his theory closely held until publishing it in 1859. In addition, in view of the context provided by the rest of the poem, the line was clearly meant to refer to the dominant biological theory of the early nineteenth century, which was a creationist theory.
The claim about the publication dates of Tennyson's poem and Darwin's theory plays which one of the following roles in the argument?
(A) It casts doubt on whether the theory of evolution should be attributed to Darwin alone.
(B) It supports the claim that creationist theories of biology were dominant in the early nineteenth century.
(C) It provides reason to believe that Tennyson did not know about Darwin's theory when the poem was published.
(D) It suggests that Tennyson's line provided Darwin with the inspiration for developing his theory.
(E) It implies that Tennyson knew little about the dominant biological theories of the nineteenth century.

The claim about the publication dates of Tennyson's poem and Darwin's theory plays which one of the following roles in the argument?
(A) It casts doubt on whether the theory of evolution should be attributed to Darwin alone.
No, it doesn't cast any doubt on who was the creator of theory
(B) It supports the claim that creationist theories of biology were dominant in the early nineteenth century.
No, It doesn't provide any support to that. there are two evidence one is date publish and second one which led to proof of existence of creationist theory in 19th century. But both supporting same conclusion that tennyson was not mentioning to darwin theory
(C) It provides reason to believe that Tennyson did not know about Darwin's theory when the poem was published.
Yes, that's why he could not be possibly referring to it
(D) It suggests that Tennyson's line provided Darwin with the inspiration for developing his theory.
No, cant be inferred
(E) It implies that Tennyson knew little about the dominant biological theories of the nineteenth century.
No, In-fact he knew that's why he mentions it throughout the book

Tennyson's poem was published in 1850. Darwin's theory of evolution became publicly well-known only in 1859. The author uses these dates to conclude that Tennyson's poem referred to some other older theory instead of Darwin's theory. We are to answer on what role the publication dates of Tennyson's poem & Darwin's theory play in the argument.
(A) It casts doubt on whether the theory of evolution should be attributed to Darwin alone.
Not correct.
(B) It supports the claim that creationist theories of biology were dominant in the early nineteenth century.
We don't know if that other theory was dominant or not.
(C) It provides reason to believe that Tennyson did not know about Darwin's theory when the poem was published.
Exactly.
(D) It suggests that Tennyson's line provided Darwin with the inspiration for developing his theory.
Not at all. Eliminate.
(E) It implies that Tennyson knew little about the dominant biological theories of the nineteenth century.
