Fossils are fossils, which, in time, are laminated and shaped like stones. Various fossils may exist, but this time scientists have discovered a fossil in Canada that may be the oldest fossil in microbial biodiversity. Its age is estimated by scientists to be between 1.6 billion and 1.25 billion years old. Although scientists are still conducting various studies, they have really found the most ancient microbial fossils.
In fact, if this microcosm is the earliest microbial life on earth, scientists speculate that it was not too late to develop life after the formation of the earth.
"All we can say is that life began to evolve very quickly after the Earth's terrain and seas formed 1.5 billion years ago. This means that the evolution of organisms is not very difficult if we get the right environment and the right ingredients for survival, "- said Matthew Dodd. He is a graduate of the Department of Biogeochemistry at University College London. He is also one of the major contributors to the study.
Controversial History:
There is no doubt that 1.5 billion years ago, the initial development of life was greater in water bodies. But the most debated issue is when the first life was developed. Scientists have discovered chemicals about 1.5 billion years ago from zircon found in Australia. In Australia, a type of filamentous national algae has been found that is 1.5 billion years old. Also found in Greenland, cyan bacteria were found 1.5 billion years ago. Then it appears that the life of the plant originated before the organism. However, scientists are still unable to say exactly when the first and the first development took place.
The main problem for scientists knows exactly when the evolution of small organisms took place, but during that time the earth was passing through various structural conditions.
For example, a stone has been found in Australia that is around 1.5 billion years old. It's called Apex Shirt. Some small microfossil particles are seen in the middle of it. Scientist Rothschild said
“Such fused particles or fossils are found in Calavadera but they are not very new. The question is, what can be said about them in a very final way? This is the source of the oldest life. ”
Let's see if this new acquisition of scientists solves this mystery!
