10 Questions
11.1.a. What are the properties typically associated with living organisms?
Homeostasis, structural organization, metabolism, growth and reproduction, response to environmental conditions or stimuli, and evolved by the process of natural selection.
11.1.b. What is the geologic age of Earth?
4.6 billion years.
11.1.b. What are the early events in the history of life on Earth, in chronological order?
Earth forms by accretion from a cloud of interstellar material orbiting the sun. Earth cools, and the early atmosphere and oceans form. Prebiotic chemical reactions create the building blocks of life. Evolution begins with the RNA world. The first cellular life-forms evolve. The process of diversification that has fashioned the tree of life begins.
11.2.a. Why does the theory of evolution not explain the origin of life?
The theory of evolution explains the process of how life evolves and changes over time but does not explain how life originated in the first place.
11.2.a. What does the theory of evolution explain?
The theory of evolution explains how life evolves and changes over time through the process of natural selection.
