using chemical to "create first life" by yourself!

Have anyone try this?
I think it is a very good experiment can be done at home!

It seem extremely funny, and the condition can be modified by our own...
I think something more instresting could be observed if some other thing is added!


but I have no time and $$ to do this experiment...

I wonder what I would name my pet inorganic fungus...

Actually,

I really wonder what the membrane is...

why the reaction occur in the inside rather than outside...

would some molecule exist only inside the bug...

could those molecule are too large to diffuse out...

what would occur if the composition of the mixture is changed...

Too many questions, but no time to try !:mad: :mad: :mad:
 

1. How did you create life as a scientist?

As a scientist, I did not create life. The concept of creating life is still a mystery and has not been achieved by any scientist yet. However, scientists are constantly studying and researching the origins of life on Earth.

2. Can you prove the existence of a god through creating life?

No, the existence of a god cannot be proven through the creation of life. The concept of a god or higher power is a matter of faith and belief, not something that can be scientifically proven.

3. What scientific theories support the creation of first life by a god?

There are no scientific theories that directly support the creation of first life by a god. However, some religious beliefs and creation stories may align with scientific theories of the origins of life.

4. How do you think the first life was created by a god?

As a scientist, I cannot speculate on how the first life may have been created by a god. The concept of a god or higher power is subjective and varies among different religions and belief systems.

5. Can science and religion coexist in the creation of first life?

Yes, science and religion can coexist in the creation of first life. While science seeks to understand the natural world through empirical evidence, religion offers a spiritual and philosophical perspective on the origins of life. Both can complement each other and provide a more comprehensive understanding of the world we live in.
