Living organisms
#34
RE: Living organisms
My understanding is that "life" on earth (self replicating proto-biotic molecules) likely started some 4 billion years ago in the proximity of hydrothermal vents, where proton gradients, heat from the earth's molten core as well as a plethora of weird and wonderful spouting chemicals comprised the "primordial soup." The oldest fossilised microorganisms yet discovered were also recovered from hydrothermal vent precipitate. Oh yeah, and I'm English - that's the really important bit  Hilarious
