Question

Life can originate on the Earth from pre-existing life only.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is A True

• Actually, life first originated from non-living simple constituents but that happened in ancient Earth whose environment was entirely different from present-day Earth.
• In present-day Earth, those conditions are missing and hence, now life can come only from pre-existing life. In fact, that is an important characteristic of living systems that they can reproduce.
