If evolution is true, which came first, the brain or the heart. they both need each other for survival, so which came first. and if living things come from living things, where did the first living things come from. like the cell theory states, new cells are produced from old cells. so, where did the first living thing come from if living things come from living things, and never from unliving things. answer me that

egghead: yes, i passed Honors Biology. and, where did the gases come from? or the pond? or every other freakin thing that there supposedly was?

im deffinately not a bible humper though. i just dont believe evolution. and i do believe creationism, but im not all religious. and, the one person said that every living thing was only a cell big, well where did they come from. And, i dont think evolution is going on around us. adaptation is, and the way our bodies and organisms bodies are suppose to function. And for an organism to be living, it has to meet many different aspects like maintaining homeostasis, being made up of cells, reproduction, respond to the environment, and others. I Just asked this question to see what ideas there were. thanks

I've found that the people who turn to religion for answers are those who are unable to see the natural elegance of the universe. There is plenty of explanation as to how life emerged from non-living things, the main problem is that there aren't enough people active making that knowledge more widespread. If you look at it, there is quite a lot of favorable conditions for life to emerge. Firstly, it has been shown that the composition of your standard-issue meteor plus the energy it would generate impacting can create your basic amino acids and nucleotides. In temperature differences just from day to night, DNA will split apart and zip back up, but not always the same as before, leaving hanging ends. These ends will get filled in, and eventually, DNA that synthesizes useful proteins will form. (Evolution applies just as much to individual genetic material and proteins just as much as entire organisims. There's far too much to explain in a Yahoo Answers answer, but I suggest Scientists Confront Creationism. I've read the old 1980s version, and I hear that the updated one is also quite informative. It presents clear and simple arguments for evolution, and even in the 1980s version, it was made quite clear that all of this is and has been known, it's just not very widespread knowledge.

Let me ask you this, have you passed high school biology? If you have, you wouldn't be asking this question.
The answer is YES, evolution is very true.
Where did life come from? First life originated from an array of several different elements which were present in either an ocean or pond; a bolt of lightning energized those elements and they bonded to form amino acids, which formed the first proteins, which are the building blocks of life.
For further info, get a high school textbook, it should adequately explain the rest.
EDIT- No, it is evident you know nothing of biology, otherwise you wouldn't be asking this question.
And the origin of elements and matter in general has nothing to do with biology, that's not what biology teaches, it teaches how living things work and form, not where "ponds" came from, and every "freaking" thing.

Evolution does not require “theory”. scientific theories are the two supported or no longer supported. a individual’s “theory” in them is beside the point. The technology is settled, and there truly is not any debate. Evolution is the thought maximum supported with the help of the information. fairly ignorant people could brush aside it with the help of exclaiming “It’s merely an theory”. the sole factor this assertion exhibits is that the speaker has no information of the be conscious “concept” in scientific words. there's a “concept” of Gravity. could they, subsequently, deny the existence of gravity? Evolution could nicely be and has been stated. that's a fact. The “concept” is how those information come at the same time and why, no longer the factor (gravity, evolution etc.) itself. I even have heard various people ask “If monkeys became into people, why are there nevertheless monkeys?” people and different primates (super Apes) have a undemanding ancestor. Apes did no longer “substitute into “people. it is like asking “If the Pilgrims got here from England, how can there nevertheless be an England”? some people will reject scientific information, no count how nicely supported, if it contradicts their religious faith. There are, in existence on the instant, people who definitely have faith the Earth is flat because of the fact their interpretation of particular Biblical thoughts could be impossible on a around Earth. All information that contradicts the Bible could desire to be rejected so that they are able to maintain their worldview. it is extremely unhappy, truly. And yet, in case you have been to signify that Zeus (or any of the 1000's of gods people had in the previous theirs) have been to blame, creationists could say that became ridiculous, and needless to say in line with superstition and mythology.

billions of years went by and every living thing was no bigger than a cell, the very first amino acids (the building blocks of all protiens) were synthesized when lighning struck the water, scientists have re createdthe "primordial ooze" in the lab, struck it with high voltage and low and behold there were the amino acids, which were not present before. so yeah you could say god sparked life on earth, cause if god created everything, he created lightning and slam bam thank you mam 4 billion years later and here we are. why is it so hard for people to believe the truth, and how come you cant just say "ok well god created evolution" cause if there is a god, then he did create evolution, because evolution is happening right before our eyes, the proof is irrefutable and as solid as you bible thumpers think the bible is.

You don't say which creation you believe in. The Judeo version, the Hindu version, the Australian Aboriginal Dreamtime version, the Tolkein version, or the Greek Mythology version. They are all equally valid and have, or had, their ardent supporters.
Evolution explains the similarities and differences between all lifeforms on Earth. It explains why lions and pet cats look similar, why humans look like, and share 98% DNA similarity with, chimpanzees.
You can take comfort with it all being created as-is, but I need some answers to questions, and they aren't in any religious books which tell me that the Earth is flat, and that we are at the centre of the universe.

It's evolution itself which makes you think that way! ..to follow the dogma instead of thinking rationally. We evolved to believe in dogma!
Long ago, people who question the shaman or the tribal chief - died - they did not reproduce. The careful observational skills, the skeptical question, and the willingness to test often died with them.

The brain or the heart??? Why don't you quit lying about honors biology and look to the jelly fish instead.

The heart. Without it our species had no ability to thrive. The development of our cerebral function resulted from the increasing need to create intervention and creative solution that helped us solve the challenges we encountered. However, I accept that both are required for our ongoing evolution. The heart came first/

nice job thinkin'! questions like these are important to ask. biologists and evolutionists do a poor job at explaining things and then expect everyone to believe them.
living things are defined as things that can reproduce themselves and metabolize energy. complex molecules were the first to fit this bill, and have been evolving in their complexity ever since.
the brain is one type of organ of the nervous system. there are many types of systems, including some that don't include brains.
the heart is one type of organ of one type of circulatory system. there are open and closed circulatory systems, with and without hearts.
different systems, including gastro-intestinal systems and endocrine systems, evolved in different trajectories in different types of animals. so they didn't all result in the same outcome, and somewhere along the way to our heart and brain, there were prot-brains and proto-hearts that evolved in concert with changes in all these internal systems.
below is a good website about this stuff
