    This document discusses the evolution of life on Earth based on emerging evidence. It provides an introduction to life science and describes the key characteristics of living things. It outlines the major types of organisms, including eukaryotes and prokaryotes. The document presents evidence that supports the idea that life began on Earth between 3.5 to 4 billion years ago, including fossils of ancient sea life found on dry land and indications of past volcanic activity and climate changes.

    of Life Based on

    Introduction to Life Science
    Life Science is a collection of
    disciplines that is made up of
    theories and principles that tackles
    the structure and function of
    living things starting from the
    molecular level up to entire
    ecosystems.
    Life Science
    ▪ This field advances our or Biological
    knowledge about the Science
    anatomy, cell biology,
    ecology, genetics,
    molecular biology, and
    physiology of all living
    things on Earth
    ▪ They are made up of cells
    ▪ They grow and develop Characteristics
    ▪ They are capable of of Life
    reproduction
    ▪ They exhibit metabolism
    ▪ Respond to their
    environment
    ▪ They maintain homeostasis
    ▪ Any cell or organism that
    possesses a clearly
    defined nucleus. Types of
    ▪ Contains organelles Organisms
    (Based on cell structure)
    ▪ Animals, plants, fungi, and EUKARYOTE
    protists

    ▪ May be unicellular or
    multicellular
    ▪ Any organisms that lacks a
    distinct nucleus and other
    organelles due to the Types of
    absence of internal Organisms
    membranes
    (Based on cell structure)

    ▪ Bacteria and Archaea PROKARYOTE

    ▪ Unicellular
    Have you been curious of when and where did
    life possibly start on Earth?

    ▪ During the 1800s, geologists and the naturalists


    found several forms of physical evidence that
    confirmed that Earth is very old.
    ▪ this supported the idea that
    the Earth changed over time
    and some dry land today
    was once covered by
    oceans Evidences:
    Fossils of
    ancient sea life
    on dry land far
    from oceans

    Trilobite fossil Fish fossil


    ▪ allowed the people to realize that
    rock layers represent the order in
    which rocks and fossils
    appeared, thus they were able to
    trace the history of Earth and life
    on Earth
    Evidences:
    Many layers of
    Rock
    ▪ that happened long ago
    shaped much of the Earth’s
    surface and supported the
    idea of an older Earth
    Evidences:
    Indications that
    volcanic eruptions,
    earthquakes and
    erosion
    KEY POINTS:
    ▪ Eukaryortic cells evolved from prokaryotic cells
    ▪ The evolution of life is brought about the changes
    in the environment which are linked to changes in
    climate and geology.
    ▪ These environmental changes made the Earth’s
    environment more suitable for a wider variety of
    life forms.
    KEY POINTS:
    ▪ The universe is about 4.6 billion years old. Life on earth,
    probably began only between 3.5 and 4.0 billion years ago.
    ▪ Evidences from fossil records show the emergence of the
    different life forms.
    ▪ The common ancestor of all life was prokaryotic.
    ▪ At present, the oldest cell microfossils (microscopic fossils) are
    filaments from 3.5 billion-year-old rocks in Western Australia.
    The filaments resemble chains of modern photosynthetic
    bacteria and the rocks in which they occur are the remains of
    ancient stromatolites.
