Preparations Motivation/ - Review the previous lesson about the rocks and minerals.
Introduction - The teacher will ask a question, how do living things form?
Activity

Presentation Activity They work as a group. After the teacher presents the topic through PPT. The
students make a graphic organizer about the concept of how living things
form.
Analysis How can we explain the origins of biological catalysis in the chemistry of the
early Earth?
How did the complex process of genetically encoded peptide synthesis
emerge, step by step?
What is the origin of the genetic code?
 Abstraction Present through PPT
There are at least three types of hypotheses which attempt to explain the
origin of life on Earth. The first and oldest of these hypotheses suggest that
life was created by a supreme being or spiritual force. Most cultures and
religions have their own explanations of creation that are passed down from
generation to generation.

The second set of hypotheses suggest that life began in another part of the
universe and arrived on Earth by chance, such as with the crash of a comet or
meteor.

The third, and most common hypothesis in the scientific community, is that
life began approximately 3.5 billion years ago as the result of a complex
sequence of chemical reactions that took place spontaneously in Earth's
atmosphere. In the 1950's, two biochemists conducted an experiment which
showed that certain molecules of life (amino acids) could form spontaneously
when the conditions of Earth's early atmosphere were recreated in the lab. It
is assumed that over time, these molecules interacted with one another
eventually leading to the earliest forms of life.

Practice Application They answer the following questions with in their respective group.

What is the earliest record of microbial life?

How can geochemistry constrain the timing and environments of the origin
and early evolution of life?
What can deep phylogeny tell us about the history of life prior to the last
common ancestor?
