Detailed Solution

Evolution of Darwin's finches occured naturally but not due to anthropogenic action. There is no human involvement in their evolution.

Melanised moth population size increased due to industrial melanism. Herbicide resistant weeds developed due to indiscriminate use of herbicides. Antibiotics are developed by humans. Hence, human interference has driven the evolution of these organisms.
