Explanation:

Charles Darwin served as a naturalist on the HMS Beagle, proposed the theory of evolution by natural selection, and explained the formation of atolls. There is no record of him being the first to use a chronometer time - piece, and while he may have used nets for various fieldwork, there's no specific emphasis on using them to capture plankton. The claim about the chronometer is clearly false.

Answer:

E. Darwin was the first to use a chronometer timepiece.
