The Earth is thought to be over 4.5 billion years old. The first life that appeared on Earth was about 3.77 billion years ago. We cannot definitively say what the first organism was; our educated guess is that it must have been a prokaryote....
What vegetation was there in the Triassic Period? What were the first organisms on earth? What organisms survived the Ordovician-Silurian extinction? What are photosynthetic autotrophs? When the earth was an oxygen-free atmosphere, what was the early life like?
If it's defined by having the biggest brain,then sperm whales(抹香鲸)—whose brain is 20 pounds —would be the brightest creatures on Earth.But,more likely,it's how a brain is wired.Viewed in this way,intelligence is what gives an organism the best chance to survive in an environment....

This organic matter was constantly altered on its long journey towards our planet, its final composition the product of a singular history which scientists are now attempting to reconstruct.但是这些最终进入地球海洋的碳质物质经历了一系列的变化，特定的温度、特定的事件、特定的恒星、来自太阳的特定量的...
“We do not yet know the mechanisms involved, or why some organism are getting smaller while others are unaffected,” the researchers said. “Until we understand more, we could be risking negative consequences that we can't yet quantify.”The change was big in coldblooded animals. Only two ...
By carefully dissecting and exploring these structures, scientists have access to some of the only remaining clues about what the first life on Earth was like. After the Earth first formed nearly 4.5 billion years ago, it was entirely uninhabitable. In fact, the Earth's surface was a molten ...
