Origin of life summary
Life first began billions of years when Earth as we know it was called "Black Earth", molten lava covered the entire surface of earth and created rocks and minerals. These minerals consisted of natures building blocks consisting of granite, quartz, and many other types of rock. These minerals contain molecules that when water was first created with the lingering elements of carbon dioxide, nitrogen, and water vapor. Earth slowly transitioned from the black Earth to the grey almost blue Earth. The idea of early earth water cycle was recreated with scientist Stanley Miller, his experiment showcased how Earth's limited resources created the 20 organic molecules. His experiment consisted of a flask of water simulating water and another flask with the gases of earth earth (ammonia and methane) with an electric spark that simulated lightning that breaks down the gas and water molecules, creating amino acids that associate with making proteins. By recreating organic molecules, scientists now have the answers to how life began, The combination of these minerals, organic molecules, and oxygen, planet Earth has now become the green planet with living plants, animals, and humans,
