Hello! I have a discussion tommorow with my classmates, and the prompt says like this:
Discuss whether changes to an organism's physical environment are likely to result in evolutionary change. Use examples to support your reasoning. Second, using at least two examples, explain how the process of evolution is revealed by the imperfections of living organisms.
What is the most logical theory on the topic of the Origin of Life?
'The origin of life is a co‐evolutionary process.' Briefly explain.

- What theory of the origin of life do you think is most possible? Why?arrow_forwardSelect the true statements from the following regarding the evolutionary theories that are thought to have combined to give rise to life on earth. Reproduction is required for both chemical and biological evolution. Both chemical and biological evolution are defined by change over time. Purpose of Miller-Urey experiment was to answer the question: can chemistry give rise to complex molecules required for life? The Miller-Urey experiment showed that chemistry can give rise to the molecules required for evolution of life.arrow_forwardgive a description of the theory proposed by oparin, miller, sagan, fox and others for the orgin of life from non-living material. What do you think about the origin of life? -philosophy of sciencearrow_forward
- Evolution is forever. Do you agree or disagree? Please explain your answer.arrow_forwardDescribe the following unifying theme in the study of life 1.Evolution 2. Interaction with the environment and how does these themes serves as an foundation in the study of biologyarrow_forwardDiscuss briefly the origin of life according to the theories listed below and justify which theory is better to test by scientific method. Your justification should include formulation of hypothesis for each theory Theory of Special Creation Theory of Spontaneous Generation Theory of Catastrophism Cosmozoic Theory (Theory of Panspermia): Theory of Chemical Evolutionarrow_forward
- Scientists Stanley Miller and Harold Urey set up an experiment modeling the environmental conditions thought to exist during the early stages of Earth's formation. The setup of Miller and Urey's experiment is shown below. Which conclusion about the origin of life could be drawn from the potential results of this experiment? Life assembled from chemical building blocks. Life began when water vapor became electrified. Life evolved from the DNA of simple unicellular organisms. Life began when salt water caused a mutation in an ancient virus.arrow_forwardWhat is the origin of life or the main ancestor of all organismsarrow_forwardPlease explain to me in the simplest way..... 1.What is environmental evolution? 2. How do all living things share a common ancestor? 3. What is random evolution?arrow_forward
- What are the implications of cellular and molecular biology for spontaneous generation and the hypothesis of evolution? please just answer in a short paragraph, no need to be long and just a simple answer (easy to understand)arrow_forwardPresent three possible explanations for the origin of life.arrow_forwardTrue or false: The "Miller Urey" experiment that found heating and cooling gases such as H20 and CH4 were able to produce small organic molecules. This proved that life originated on Earth through natural mechanisms.arrow_forward
