Description

This lecture covers the history of life on Earth, starting from the origin of molecules of life to the colonization of terrestrial environments. It discusses the evidence from fossils, the origin of life's molecules, the three domains of life, geological events, mass extinctions, and adaptive radiations. The lecture also explores the formation of protocells, the role of RNA in early life, and the concept of natural selection. It highlights key events such as the appearance of prokaryotic cells, oxygen in the atmosphere, eukaryotes, multicellular organisms, and the colonization of land. The presentation concludes with a discussion on extinctions, adaptive radiations, and the evolutionary process.
