How did LIFE begin on earth?

Share Collapse

1. The Primordial Soup Theory suggest that 3.8 billion to 3.55 billion years ago life began in a pond or ocean as a result of the combination of chemicals from the atmosphere and some form of energy to make amino acids, the building blocks of proteins, which would then evolve into the first species on Earth.

2. Panspermia, the theory that life on the earth originated from microorganisms or chemical precursors of life present in outer space and able to initiate life on reaching a suitable environment.

Tardigrades can withstand…

1. Temperatures from 1 K to ~420 K
2. Tardigrades in the tun state could survive a pressure of 600 megapascals (MPa). At these crushing pressures, proteins and DNA are ripped apart!
3. Ionizing radiation hundreds of times higher than the lethal dose for a human
4. Vacuum of outer space
5. 30+ years without food or water!

P.S. We focused on scientific theories, not religion for this video. We respect all opinions and you are all entitled to your own. :) Also keep in mind new facts and information are always being found!

I really enjoyed it! I like the art style a lot.

Evolution is just a little happy accident

your animation style is very cute.

Well, you left our Abiogenesis and the theory proposed by Jeremy England of MIT. You could use a lot more work on your research as you left so much out and presented some of the more older thoughts.

Curiosity180 responds:

Hey!

The sources we used are definitely not as recent. This leaves more opportunities to different theories in future episodes :)

Good job, man! Your animation is really pretty and helpful!

Curiosity180 responds:

Pretty is our aim aha :)
