BiopoiesisBiopoiesis or biopoesis is the process of living matter evolving from self-replicating but nonliving molecules. This theory describes the origin of life on Earth, the earliest evidence of which points to life arising 3.87 Gyr ago. It is theorized that biopoiesis may occur over time if an energy source, organic molecules, and liquid water are present. J. B. S. Haldane and A.I. Oparin developed this theory in the 1920s. The Miller-Urey experiment tested this theory in 1953, as did Joan Or in 1961. Current Research Publications - Pitsch, S. Krishnamurthy, R. Arrhenius, G. (2000).
