about primitive earth

Earth is the only planet in our solar system, which is surrounded by oxygen, the life giving gas. It is the only planet to have large quantities of water. Earth's atmosphere contains oxygen, nitrogen, carbon dioxide and water vapour. Earth Earth is a medium s..

According to this theory, the reducing atmosphere of primitive earth helped in the formation of simple inorganic compounds followed by simple organic compounds. Then complex organic compounds and subsequently their interaction leading to the formation of self duplicating n..

With a considerable decrease in the earth's temperature over thousands of years, the atoms of different elements came together at random and formed inorganic molecules. Since the lighter elements (hydrogen, oxygen, carbon and nitrogen) were the most abundant in the outermost layer, their ..

Chemical evolution resulted in the formation of life on earth about 3.8 billion years ago. The primitive cells that resulted from this process gradually gave rise to primitive forms of organisms such as bacteria, algae, fungi and protozoan. These organisms in tur..

Organic Evolution - Chemical evolution resulted in the formation of life on earth about 3.8 billion years ago. The primitive cells that resulted from this process gradually gave rise to primitive forms of organisms such as bacteria, algae, fungi and protozoan. These or..

Experimental Evidence - As the theory of chemical evolution started gaining more support, investigations were initiated by several scientists to establish the conditions under which, the simplest organic compounds were formed in the primitive earth. Two scientists, Stanley Mille..

Introduction - The first photosynthetic organism probably appeared almost three billion years ago. With the evolution of photosynthesis, however, organisms began to change the face of our planet and, as a consequence, to exert strong influences on each other. Organisms have continued to change the ..

This theory is also known as Materialistic Theory or Physico-chemical Theory. According this theory, Origin of life on earth is the result of a slow and gradual process of chemical evolution that probably occurred about 3.8 billion years ago. This theory was proposed independently by two ..

Summary - Earth is said to have been formed about4.8 billion years ago. Earliest earth was a hot revolving ball of gas. The formation of first cells in planet earth is explained by the theory of chemical evolution proposed by Oparin and Haldane, independently. Accordin..
