This has been CONFIRMED in Dr. Jack Szostak's LAB. 2009 Nobel Laurette in medicine for his work on telomerase.

It's been 55 years since the Miller-Urey Experiment, and science has made enormous progress on solving the origin of life. This video summarizes one of the best leading models. Yes there are others. Science may never know exactly how life DID start, but we will know many ways how life COULD start. Don't be fooled by creationist arguments as even a minimal understanding of biology and chemistry is enough to realize they have no clue what they are talking about.

Note on how competition works. Water will flow across a membrane to try to equalize the ion concentration. If there is a lot of polymer in a vesicle it will be surrounded by many ions, thus causing water to flow into the vesicle, increasing the internal pressure and stretching the membrane. Fatty acids are in equilibrium between the vesicle and solution. If 2 vesicles are near one another they will gradually swap fatty acids. If one membrane is under tension, the fatty acid "on rate" will be greater than the "off rate" (move to a lower energy state by relaxing the pressure). It will suck up fatty acids from solution. The other vesicle will still give them off, but they will disappear (sucked up by neighbor) and not return. Therefore, the vesicle with high internal pressure will grow and the neighbor will shrink.

    Since 1st grade, students understand that 0+0=0

    After years of debate, science has agreed with the Bible, that the universe had a BEGINNING. Before the universe began, it didn’t exist, so there was nothing, or... was there something undetectable? Nothing can’t turn into everything… remember from the first grade… 0+0=0

    There WAS something, something undetectable by science… that something is God.

    God converted HIS energy into matter. e=mc^2

    Do u want to know Him? If u do, post to me.

    actually modern dogs are merely a subspecies of gray wolf, canis lupus familiaris.

    what exactly do you mean by "kind"? do you mean species,family, genus? something else?(and if so, please elaborate)

    when it comes to humans, specifically evolution doesnt teach anything about human art,philosophy,economy,religio­ns,technology,etc. it merely explains the biology of humans.

    Ah, so it all gets proven based on what words people use? If we call them dogs they have to be the same species? Reality is partly in agreement with you. Generally when we use a single label for many creatures it does indicate that they're related. For example you're a primate, hominid, and great ape, however pathetic an excuse for one you might be.

    silly fool - the wolf was your argument - I explaining to you it is not evo - even though your evo nutters have now made the dog and the wolf distinct species - it is not evo - I laugh at evo - why would I claim it as evo - I claim it as variety amongst the kinds - just like the different races in the human race - they are all human made equal in the eyes of my god - not what your nasty rotten evo teaches. Your silly dog problem is manmade - exagerated - in nature your Chihuahua would last secs.

    Well, thank you for helping with some clarification. I'll have to do more research into the law. Thanks.

    Right, they went from wolves to everything from Greyhounds to Bulldogs to Chihuahuas to Great Danes and even the still very wolf-looking German Shepherds but evolution had nothing to do with it. I look forward to your work getting a Chihuahua to give birth to a live puppy fathered by a Great Dane with no medical assistance.

    Jesus doesn't love you since your lies keep making him "cry."

    Good job bringing up dogs, which we observed evolving from wolves.

    So you're insane enough to think that posting your idiot fantasies will make you any more believable? "I wonder who the liar is - and he wants you to think he is the true hero - along with death"

    Are you just completely incapable of considering a reality in which some supernatural bully ISN'T holding your hand?

    trust me - I not shouting - I laughing my head of at you evo nutters - I have more understanding than to think a rock became living goo and then by the way of a zoo - it finally became you - hahahaha

    I still think you know a dog brings forth a DOG - we were all created equal by a creator - no system is know to man that develops new iimproved information within the dna system - it is just lies - and oh - I wonder who the liar is - and he wants you to think he is the hero - along with death ofc
