Louis Pasteur used a goose-neck flask and demonstrated what?
life spontaneously appears
life begins from other organisms

3.8-3.5 bya
4-5 bya
Earth's early atmosphere had no
gasses
volcanoes
water vapor
free oxygen
lightening and solar radiation provided enough energy to transform atmospheric chemicals into biomolecules, which then accumulated in the massive ocean covering the earth’s surface.

aerobic
both aerobic an anaerobic
This bacteria formed 3.5 bya and was photosynthetic and release oxygen into the atmosphere.
cyanobacteria
E. coli
archae bacteria
