I want to know the answer to the following question:
What was the likely reason that Darwin's ideas were accepted more readily than Lamarck's?
All the background I'm provided with is that "Scientific readers were already aware of arguments that species changed through processes that were subject to laws of nature, but the transmutational ideas of Lamarck and the vague "law of development" of Vestiges had not found scientific favour.". Is that enough to answer the question?
Answer: no
