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.

  • this video gave me a boner :)

  • Fantastic video !!

    Thank you very much

  • So life existed as a one single celled organisim, for billions of years, they not effected by the environment but in turn life shaped environment itself, throught its interactions with it, and those single cell, created our rich Oxegen Atmosphere that made it possible for other life forms to dwell on land, as the first creatures walked Earth in the Siluran period some 440 million years ago.

  • what a great video, one witness the creation of cell through its chemical process coupled with enviromental changes.its a proof no doubt.

    Modern theory beliving in formation of life through existence of water, or as they say Follow water, thats what the search is on, on Mars, simply to find water and first.Life has formed on Earth 3 billions years ago, yet multi-celleur life was started 650 Million years ago, when Earth came out of its ice age, so called Snow Ball Earth.
