Chapter 25- Origin of life on earth The earth is estimated to have formed about 4.6 years ago condensing from a cloud of dust and rock. For the first few hundred millions years the Earth was being bombarded by huge chunks of rock and ice. The collisions created enough eat to vaporise the adavible water and prevent seas from forming. The early earth had a reducing atmosphere (electron adding) and there was no oxygen in the atmosphere, and as a result there was no need for an ozone layer to protect the earth from high levels of UV radiation.

Overview: They?re (Almost) Everywhere! ? Prokaryotes were the earliest organisms on Earth. ? Today, they still dominate the biosphere. ? Their collective biomass outweighs all eukaryotes combined at least tenfold. ? More prokaryotes inhabit a handful of fertile soil or the mouth or skin of a human than the total number of people who have ever lived. ? Prokaryotes are wherever there is life. ? They thrive in habitats that are too cold, too hot, too salty, too acidic, or too alkaline for any eukaryote. ? Prokaryotes have even been discovered in rocks two miles below the surface of the Earth. ? Why have these organisms dominated the biosphere since the origin of life on Earth? ? Prokaryotes display diverse adaptations that allow them to inhabit many environments.

Chapter 26 The Tree of Life An Introduction to Biological Diversity Overview: Changing Life on a Changing Earth Life is a continuum Extending from the earliest organisms to the great variety of species that exist today Geological events that alter environments Change the course of biological evolution Conversely, life changes the planet that it inhabits Figure 26.1 Geologic history and biological history have been episodic Marked by what were in essence revolutions that opened many new ways of life Concept 26.1: Conditions on early Earth made the origin of life possible Most biologists now think that it is at least a credible hypothesis That chemical and physical processes on early Earth produced very simple cells through a sequence of stages
