n.a
reference to one of the theories of the
origin of "
life" on this planet. Per this
theory,
life arose through a
series of
spontaneous chemical reactions involving various substances including
ammonia. The
theory surmises that these
compounds fell from the atmosphere into the
sea creating a kind of prebiological soup, interacted and grew larger and larger. Somehow, cells were formed which eventually led to the
life forms that inhabit Earth today, including
man.
