oceanic vents, or ponds. By transformation, more complicated organic polymers were created. Thus began life. The Miller-Urey
The thesis of this paper is that possibly finding life on Europa, likely in the future, will illuminate the origins of life on Earth but will likely cause conflict for some subcultures as well. Section 1: Possibility of Life on Europa There is possibility of finding life on Europa. Europa is one of four moons orbiting Jupiter. The premises of the possibility of life on Europa is that there are hydrothermal vents with life on Earth as well as on Europa. By observation, it is known that Europa has
After researching each of the assigned hypotheses, I do not believe in any of them. I believe in the Bible and everything in it. It was difficult at first to get over the fact that I had to research and write a paper on things that I do not believe in. It was hard for me to stay focused on each hypothesis because of my belief that God created the earth in six days and rested on the seventh day. I truly believe it did not take any longer than that. Primordial Soup Hypothesis 1,2 The Soviet Biologist
This research paper describes the most common theories about the origin of life and evolution on earth. All of the theories have originated from the thought of something evolving, for example the Primordial Soup Hypothesis, which suggests that life was created when an ocean of chemicals from the atmosphere and a form of energy created amino acids, which then have evolved into the different species. A chemist named Stanley Miller tested the Primordial Soup Hypothesis by sending an electrical charge
Research Paper The ocean is one of, if not, the largest biome on earth. There are more than one million species of marine life. Covering over 70 percent of the Earth’s surface, the ocean is our planet’s largest habitat, containing 99 percent of the living space on the planet. This area holds the life of nearly 50 percent of all species on Earth. Like lakes, oceans are subdivided into separate zones: intertidal, pelagic, abyssal, and benthic. All four zones have a great diversity of species. The
EASC 2112 Earth System The lively Earth: important features make the Earth unique Name: Leung Ho Nam, Banson UID: 2011712579 Introduction: The Earth is one of the eight planets in the solar system. The planet Earth is emphasized as “the rare Earth” in numerous literatures because of its unique physical conditions and the complicated interactions among all biotic and abiotic systems. Isotope dating indicates the earth was formed approximately from 4.53 to 4.568 Ga, according to isotope
increasing demand for mining could result in a detrimental damage to the environment which is possibly irreversible. Impacts including the degrading of habitats, possible extinctions from oil being spelled in the work process to toxic plumes. From my research I have concluded that there are three different types of Deep sea mining minerals that are of high interest to big industries and governments worldwide which consists of Polymetallic nodules (manganese nodules) ~ these are a form of rock formed at
No matter when we consider the beginning of time, there will always be the question of origin. "And before then- what?" The origin of the universe remains a mystery, but extrapolation from current working models can be used to speculate about the universe 's early development. The leading theory on the early development of the universe is the Big Bang theory, which puts forth the idea that the universe expanded from a singularity, or a single point.[1] The Big Bang laid the seeds that lead to the
