Read the excerpt from "Ship's Chronometer from HMS Beagle” and consider the accompanying image.
suter [353]

The correct answer is "The image aids readers' understanding of key concepts". A nautical chronometer made by Thomas Earnshaw is now in the British Museum. It was used in the ship that carried Charles Darwin on his voyage around the world as part of the equipment of HMS Beagle. It was not the first chronometers, but it was the first lower-cost chronometers.  It was brass and it was around the size of a large pocket watch.
