When a parent organism or parents organisms make offspring, through fertilisation and then through cell division, then the offspring will inherit the gene information (RNA or DNA) from one parent if it is asexual reproduction or gene information from both parents if it is sexual reproduction.
It is a biochemical reaction, which is nevertheless chemical reaction.
That the nature of life.
One of your mistaken assumptions is thinking that “life” equals “consciousness”.
The fact of matter is that some organisms have consciousness, but some don’t.
And some of those “don’t” have consciousness, would include such eukaryotes like fungi, plants, algae, as well as prokaryotes like bacteria and archaea.
(If you don’t already know, there bacteria don’t have cell division, rather it is binary fission. But since you brought up
“life (consciousness)”, I think I will focused on animals that have consciousnesses, to compare against those that don’t have consciousnesses.
Consciousness is an emergence property, and for organisms like humans, consciousness is the emergence property of the brain. Without brain there are no consciousness.
My points are that life don’t alway have consciousness to be a “living” organism.
That’s mistake number one.
Unfortunately you whole post are full of mistakes, but I am not going to focus on “experiments” or “theory”, both of them are examples of your ignorance on basic science.
Mistake number two.
Let re-examine the same part I quoted from your reply, but let focused on what I highlighted in bold, ignoring the “(consciousness)” part, which I have already covered about your first mistake.
You wrote:
“...life (consciousness) arose from simpler chemical interactions but this hardly makes all the assumptions and interpretations of "Evolution" to be "known science".”
First,
“...life arose from simpler chemical interactions...”
I am assuming here, you are talking about “origin of first life”, right?
Then you equating this “origin” or “life arose” with the other half of your sentence, regarding to “Evolution”.
You are exactly like creationists, we deal with constantly at RF, who cannot learn from this mistake, no matter how many times they have been corrected.
The “life arose” is all about “Abiogenesis”, which is a very different field to “Evolution”. How “life arose” isn’t the study of Evolution.
Abiogenesis is still a hypothesis, hence you are correct that it is not “science”, yet, but Evolution is all life that already existed, and still existing if that life haven’t gone extinct.
And Evolution is about changes in the population of organisms - biodiversity - that occurred at genetic-level, over a period of time, which are measured in generations, not by merely by numbers of years.
This change can be triggered by one of five different mechanisms:
- Natural Selection
- Mutation
- Genetic Drift
- Gene Flow
- Genetic Hitchhiking
I am not going to explain what each of these evolutionary mechanisms are, so look them up yourself.
The point is that these mechanisms all fall under the umbrella of Evolution. And every ones of them have been tested.
And the points are that Evolution work with life that have already existed, and if they are extinct, life still existing today. Evolution is about WHAT organisms have changed enough for speciation to occur, WHY and HOW did they change, as well as finding out the WHERE and WHEN.
Evolution has been tested, and the number of evidence and data, support the finding, so Evolution is “science”, which actually lead to your third mistake.
The problem is that you have mistaken Abiogenesis (how “life arose”) with Evolution (studies of adaption, biodiversity and speciation of populations of species).
Your 4th mistake is that like other creationists here at RF, is that Abiogenesis isn’t just about first life, but also how cell first formed, and cells been made of many parts, like the origin of 3 essential biological macromolecules that exist in all life:
- Proteins
- Nucleic acids (eg RNA & DNA)
- Carbohydrates
How these macromolecules formed, is part of understanding how organic matters formed, for without these biological macromolecules, cells, genes and chromosomes won’t exist, and without these organic matters, life cannot exist.
And there already have been some experiments to cause chemical reactions, that convert inorganic matters into one of these macromolecules.
For instance, the Miller-Urey experiment (1952) was the earliest experiment to replicate amino acids from what inorganic compounds might exist in the early Earth’s environment. There are over hundred of different types of amino acids, but only 20 to 23 of them exist naturally and are building blocks for proteins.
In 1952, 9 out of the 20 amino acids were successfully produced them from this experiment, and stored in vials. In 2007, they discovered there now 20 amino acids.
Other experiments have been performed in the decades that followed. Some experiments added a couple more inorganic compounds that might existed in the Earth’s atmosphere, like carbon dioxide, or carbon monoxide, hydrogen sulfide and sulfur dioxide that may existed due to volcanic activities.
While Abiogenesis may not be science at stage, these experiments demonstrated that Abiogenesis is a “falsifiable” hypothesis.
That’s your fifth mistake, because you said that “life arose” is nothing but “assumptions and interpretations”.
If you can find evidence or you can perform a successful experiment, then Abiogenesis isn’t just “assumptions and interpretations”.
I will leave for now, because it is very late. So good night.
