"The motive that these women have on the male characters is a significant one. Gaines eloquently depicts Tante Lou and Miss Emma, both African American women. They were a big part in many of the male characters' lives. Whether it was being house maids at the Henri Pichot's house, or becoming surrogate mothers for our protagonist grant, they were important to those in their immediate community.…

Alexander Oparin (introduced hypothesis) and Robert Shapiro (summarized paper) presented the primordial soup theory in 1924. 3.8 billion to 3.55 billion years ago life began in a pond or ocean as a result of the combination of chemicals from the atmosphere and some form of energy to make amino acids, the building blocks of proteins, which would…
All my life I thought and believed that there consists of life in the womb before conception. Today, doctors and scientists claim that life starts after the baby comes out of the womb. Science claims that cells are the smallest units of living organisms. When the two units become joined together, a new cell, a living organism, forms. This contradicts the statement that life happens for the baby after the woman conceives.…
Bioenergetics is central to our understanding of living systems, though there has been very less research in field of finding the origins of life. Understanding the origin of cellular life on Earth requires the discovery of plausible pathways for the transition from complex prebiotic chemistry to simple biology, defined as the emergence of chemical assemblies capable of Darwinian evolution.…
The idea of creating life or prolonging it has been around since the beginning of time and survival was the main key to living longer. In religion creating life has been around since the world and life was created. In evolution life was created through an explosion we call the Big Bang Theory. In 1818 Mary Shelley completed a fiction book of horror, of the demonstrative effect of us creating life could be. Shelley's protagonist victor Frankenstein obsessed with the ability to control the outcome of life. After creating the creature he becomes overwhelmed with the grotesqueness it has and runs away from the responsibility it gave to him. Many years after Mary Shelley's book was written the term artificial life was created in 1986 with three…

Before Lamarck, not even scientists and scholars have the idea of finding the genesis of life on earth. What was widely accepted at that time was that the world was created by God. Creatures acted in certain patterns as they were made to be. Also organisms were not considered to be changeable over time. Two hundred years ago, however, Jean-Baptiste Lamarck (hereinafter referred to as Lamarck), raised the first theory of evolution which totally disputed this former cognition.…
Redi, Leeuwenhoek, Needham, Spallanzani, and Pasteur changed the way we think about life by trying to prove and disprove Spontaneous Generation or the idea that life could arise from nonliving matter. Redi disproved Spontaneous Generation. He only believed in Biogenesis which is that all life comes from life. Needham believed in Spontaneous Generation and wanted to prove it. Spallanzani wanted to know what caused microbes. Pasteur put an end to Spontaneous Generation and proved Biogenesis.…
There are many differing viewpoints on when life actually begins. In order to evaluate these viewpoints, we must define what life is. Life is defined as “The condition that distinguishes organisms from inorganic objects and dead organisms, being manifested by growth through metabolism, reproduction and the power of adaptation to environment through changes originating…
Evolutionists have different view about the origin and evolution of life (steady development of the diversity of living things from a common ancestor). Evolutionists say that living and non-living things arose from natural procedure, and they believe that life can exist on any place on the universe. “If life did arise on earth by itself, it would be inconceivable that this is the only planet upon which there is life” (Danny Faulkner). In recent years many scientists searched for extraterrestrial life in outer space, but there was no strong evidence for life in outer space. Yet, they believe, if life has existed from past in the Earth sustaining the climatic change of the Earth, there can be some evolution of life regarding to the climatic condition of other planets. Similarly, Darwin theory of evolution suggests “where life can take hold, it will”, so, one day we might see life on other planet adapting the environment.…
Ans. Scientists believe that somehow one of the planets cooled down. Initially, life came started in the form of a simple organism which could reproduce. Gradually, it became more and more complex. In the end, man came into being. Man has his feelings, plans, faith and aesthetic sense.…
