Life is defined as biology. In other words, for a thing to be considered alive it must perform certain prescribed functions. These include, though not limited to, reproduction, growth, energy acquisition, and death. Consequently, we can define viruses and prions as things that are not biologically viable, therefore not alive.
Who created life? No one created life. How could something precede its own creation? Miller and Urey showed that living things could have developed from non-living things. Consequently, life developed from non-living things.
How did we come to be? First, there is the popular statement: "ontogeny recapitulates phylogeny". This statement tells us that an individual's own development replicates their species evolutionary development. Consequently, we come to be by a microcosm of how are species comes to be.
Hey guys it's Olga Maria! Thanks for the comment freddie=] Bos i wanted to argue your point... I wanted to ask you how you knew and what gives you the right to say that anything that can preform certain functions is described as life? Not sating it in a bad way at all I'm just wondering how do you know that? How does anyone know that? Who came up with that hypothesis and why? How do you know that it is called life? Why can't it be something else? Have you experimented with this yourself? If not, then how would you know? How does anyone know Bos? This is all one big mystery to me and I really don't believe anything I hear, I have to see things for myself and since no one knows where life comes from or what made us come to be I have no clue what t believe. Enlighten me.
I am 16 years old and live in Weston, FL. I have many questions about different things and hope that maybe someone can help me out by attempting to answer them or just simply giving your opinions!
