What would happen if you took a bucket of dirt and placed in your backyard where Mother Nature will have her hands all in it, what will happen?

Thanks to all who answer
Not trying to be a smarty marty

So People are saying that Bacteria does not live in dirt, where does ring worm come from?

Answer 1

Answer 2

Take a bucket of dirt -- no special conditions, just dirt -- and leave it in my back yard to get rained on, pooped in by the local cats, probably spilled by the kids, all that good stuff, and you will end up with a bucket of dirt with grass growing out of it, and in my neighborhood, probably a Tree of Heaven shoot or a wild mulberry bush will sprout and start growing, making use of the water and other materials available to it.

Which is kind of analogous to some of the comet-seeding theories now bouncing around. If you expand that bucket to say an area the size of a backyard swimming pool, you have a pretty good chance of further interactions and the creation of a small oasis similar to but not necessarily identical to the rest of the yard surrounding it. Give your swimming-pool oasis a few thousand years, and you may find bugs and possibly an extended family of mice that are different from the bugs and mice in a field, say, a mile away. Natural variation between individuals exists; whether a particular variation will lead to greater reproduction rates and so a change in the population at large depends on a number of factors, including isolation from others of the same species. In some species of speckled moths living in highly-industrialized parts of England, the local representatives of the species tended to be darker, as lighter individuals were eaten before they could reproduce. In those same areas, however, as pollution sources were cleaned up, more light-colored moths have been able to survive, and so in some regions the color balance is returning to a lighter pattern. In those areas where the moths are not readapting, they will likely die out entirely or will go on to form new species with different behaviors that help to keep them alive.

Answer 3

Not to be a smarty marty -- that was cute....I would hope mother nature would make something grow in the dirt. Nothing bad ever came of that, huh? I would hope beautiful flowers because everyone needs beauty in their lives in one way or another.

Answer 4

again, you need the massive geological activity of a newly formed planet for abiogenesis to occur. The earth was thousands of degrees hotter than it is today and an extremely volatile environment. But to answer the question, nothing much will happen to the dirt, per se, but the planet and the life thereon will continue to evolve as it is now.

Answer 5

It will just join the rest of the dirt in the earth and become part of Mother Nature.

Answer 6

Not much. Unless there are seeds in the dirt. And maybe birds or insects will drop a seed or pod into the dirt, Then something may grow. What did you think would happen?

Answer 7

Depends on the environmental factors, not on God. Leave it there long enough, and some weeds, flowers, a bush, maybe even a tree will grow out of it, and it will be a home to bugs, worms, maybe even frogs and snakes.

Answer 8

seeds of various kinds may find thier way into the dirt, most likely moss or crab grass will be the first to grow. I've seen dandalions growing in peoples cars they were so dirty.

Answer 9

Whose Mother Nature???

Answer 10

you could use it to tell the weather. If its hot and dry, its sunny out. If its wet, its raining out. if its covered with white, its snowing out. If its gone, theres a tornado. Mother Nature at work.

Answer 11

How is "God" any different from "Mother Nature" in your scenario?

You are completely misrepresenting abiogenesis.

(FYI..ringworm is caused by a fungus, not bacteria)
