Theories about Life Science


1.) Cell Theory - In biology, cell theory is a scientific theory first formulated in the
mid-nineteenth century, that living organisms are made up of cells, that they are the basic
structural/organizational unit of all organisms, and that all cells come from pre-existing
cells. Cells are the basic unit of structure in all organisms and also the basic unit of
reproduction.

2.) Theory of Evolution by Natural Selection - According to the theory,


individuals with traits that enable them to adapt to their environments will help them
survive and have more offspring, which will inherit those traits. Individuals with less
adaptive traits will less frequently survive to pass them on. Over time, the traits that
enable species to survive and reproduce will become more frequent in the population and
the population will change, or evolve, according to BioMed Central. Through natural
selection, Darwin suggested, genetically diverse species could arise from a common
ancestor.
3.) Cosmozoic Theory - The Cosmozoic Theory proposes that life on earth did not
actually originate on this planet, though there are several other theories on howlife actually
did arrive. According to this theory, ‘protoplasm’ reached the earth in the form of spores or
germs or other simple particles from some unknown part of the universe with the cosmic
dust, and subsequently evolved into various forms of life.

4.) Electric Spark Theory - Electric Spark Theory is the theory that life
originated from amino acids created by electricity.
