3) All matter is made of particles of light.6 Light particles are the base
unit of all matter from the tiniest particles to the largest galaxies.7 In
this sense light particles are the most basic atoms.8

The basic order of matter from smaller to larger is light particles, electrons
and positrons, muons, protons and antiprotons, atoms, molecules, living
objects, planets, stars, globular clusters, galaxies, and then galactic
clusters.9

6) Light particles become trapped with each other and so form structures such
as protons, atoms, molecules, planets, stars, galaxies, and clusters of
galaxies.4

This accumulation of light particles into atoms may be the result of particle
collision, gravitation, or a combination of both.5

7) All of the billions of galaxies we see are only a tiny part of the universe.
We will never see most of the universe because no light particles from there
can ever reach us.4

Most galaxies are too far away for even one particle of light they emit to be
going in the exact direction of our tiny location, and all the light particles
they emit are captured by atoms in between there and here.5

4) There is a pattern in the universe. Light particles move from highly dense
volumes of space to volumes of less density. In low density volumes, light
particles slowly accumulate to form atoms of Hydrogen and Helium which exist as
gas clouds (like the Magellanic Clouds or Orion nebula). These gas clouds,
called nebulae continue to accumulate trapped light particles. At points of
high density planets and stars form and the cloud is eventually dense enough to
become a galaxy of stars. The stars emit light particles back out to the rest
of the universe, where the light again becomes trapped and forms new clouds.
Around each star are many planets and pieces of matter. On many of the planets
rotating around stars, living objects evolve that can copy themselves by
converting matter around them into more of them. Living objects need matter to
replace matter lost from the constant emitting of light particles (decay). Like
bacteria, these living objects grow in number, with the most successful
organisms occupying and moving around many stars. These advanced organisms then
move the groups of stars they control, as a globular cluster, away from the
plane of the spiral galaxy. As time continues, all of the stars of a galaxy are
occupied by living objects who have organized their stars into globular
clusters. These globular clusters together form an elliptical galaxy, and then
finally a globular galaxy. The globular galaxy may then exist for a long time
living off the matter in stars, in addition to matter from external sources.

So free light particles are trapped into volumes of space that grow in density
first forming atoms, then gas clouds, then stars, a spiral galaxy, an
elliptical galaxy, and finally a globular galaxy.4

Globular galaxies at our scale may be light particles at a much larger scale,
just as light particles at our scale may be globular galaxies at a much smaller
scale. This system may go on infinitely in both larger and smaller scale.

8) An expanding universe seems unlikely to me. The supposed red-shifted calcium
absorption lines may be a mistaken observation, for one reason because spectrum
size changes the position of spectral lines (as clearly shown in the 1936
Humason photo)3 , and because the distance of a light source changes the
position, but not the frequency of spectral lines4 .

6180) The first star in the Milky Way Galaxy forms.5

Stars may form from the accumulation of matter or from collisions of two or
more large bodies. As less collisions occur over time, most smaller objects are
absorbed by the larger star and planets.6

Stars and planets may have centers of densely packed unmoving light particles.
Atoms may form in the less dense space near the surface of planets and stars
where there are less collisions.7

17) Planets form around our star from many collisions. Like the star, they are
red hot with liquid rock and metals on the surface. Lighter atoms move to the
surface of the planets. Larger planets are surrounded by gas.4

As the number of collisions decreases, and smaller objects are absorbed by the
star and planets, the average temperature of the star system is lowered. As the
temperature of the planets and moons decreases, water and other molecules
condense at the surface.5

18) Larger molecules form on Earth, like amino acids, phosphates, and sugars,
the components of living objects.6

These molecules are made in the oceans, fresh water, and atmosphere of Earth
(and other planets) by lightning, from light particles with high frequency from
the Sun, and around ocean floor volcanoes.7

The initial building blocks of living objects are easily formed, but assembling
them into longer-chain molecules, or polymers, is more difficult. Amino acids
link up to form polymers called proteins, simple fatty acids plus alcohols link
up to form lipids (oils and fats), simple sugars like glucose and sucrose link
together to form complex carbohydrates and starches, and finally, the
nucleotide bases (plus phosphates and sugars) link up to form nucleic acids,
the genetic code of organisms, known as RNA and DNA.8

Possibly all proteins, carbohydrates and lipids are strictly the products of
living objects.9

molecules), as a template.

This protein assembly system is the main system responsible for all the

{PoL-u-mu-rAS3 }.

For the first time, a nucleic acid functions both as a template for building
proteins (with the help of tRNA molecules) and also as a template for building
other nucleic acid molecules.4

Eventually an mRNA that codes for the necessary tRNA, and RNA polymerase may be
copied many times.

168) The ribosome evolves. The first Ribosomal RNA (rRNA).

The ribosome may function as a protocell, providing a platform for more
efficient protein production. A single RNA may contain all the instructions
needed to make more ribosomes.

All cells contain ribosomes.2 Ribosomes are the cellular organelles that carry
out protein synthesis, through a process called translation. These molecular
machines are responsible for accurately translating the linear genetic code on
the messenger RNA (mRNA), into a linear sequence of amino acids to produce a
protein.3

20) The first cell on Earth evolves. This is the first prokaryotic cell and
first bacterium. DNA is surrounded by a membrane of proteins made by ribosomes;
the first cytoplasm.9

This cell may form in either fresh or salt water, near the sunlit water surface
or near underwater volcanoes on the ocean floor.10

The DNA of this cell is a template containing the code for a copying molecule
(DNA polymerase {PoL-u-mu-rAS11 }), and the necessary mRNA, tRNA, and rRNA
molecules needed to build the cytoplasm. For the first time, ribosomes and DNA
build cell structure. DNA protected by cytoplasm is more likely to survive and
be copied.12

This is the start of binary cell division. A protein duplicates DNA within the
cell and then the cell divides into two parts.13

This is also the start of passive transport: molecules enter and exit the
cytoplasm only because of a difference in concentration and represent the
beginnings of the first digestive system.

This cell structure forms the basis of all future cells of every living object
on Earth.14

49) Photosynthesis.6

Bacteria use light particles to convert carbon dioxide gas and an electron
donor7 (also called a reductant), like Hydrogen sulfide, into glucose, water,
and sulfur.8 This process of moving carbon from carbon dioxide gas to the
hydrocarbon molecule glucose is called carbon fixation.9

This is the ancestor of Photosystem I.10

This system of photosynthesis does not liberate oxygen.11

in grains of ancient apetite {aPeTIT10 } (which are calcium phosphate
minerals).11 12 13

Life uses the lighter Carbon-12 isotope and so the ratio of carbon-12 to
carbon-13 is different from a nonliving source (such as calcium carbonate or
limestone).14 15

45) The oldest sediment, the Banded Iron Formation begins.12
Banded Iron
Formation is sedimentary rock that spans from 3.8 to 1.8 billion years ago,
made of iron-rich silicates (like silicon dioxide SiO2) with alternating layers
of black colored reduced or ferrous iron and red colored oxidized or ferric
iron.13 14 These alternating layers represent a seasonal cycle where the
quantity of free oxygen in the ocean rises and falls, possibly linked to
photosynthetic organisms.15 16

The atmosphere of Earth still has only small amounts of oxygen at this time.

177) Gender and sex (conjugation) evolve in Escherichia Coli {esRriKEo KOlI21 }
bacteria. Conjugation is the exchange of DNA (plasmids) by a donor {male}
bacterium through a pilus to a recipient {female} bacterium.22 23 24 25 26 27

In addition to pili and conjugation, proteins that can cut DNA, and other
proteins that can connect two strands of DNA evolve.28

60) The eukaryotic cell evolves. The first cell with a nucleus. The first
protist. The nucleus may develop from the infolding of plasma membrane.12

There are some differences between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells:
In prokaryotic
cells the DNA is concentrated in a region that is not membrane enclosed called
the "nucleoid" while in eukaryotic cells most of the DNA is contained in a
nucleus that is bounded by a double membrane. Eukaryotic cells are generally
much larger than prokaryotic cells. Typical bacteria are between 1-5 um in
diameter, while eukaryotic cells are typically 10-100 um in diameter.13 Unlike
prokaryotic cells, eukaryotic cells have a cytoskeleton. The cytoskeleton
enables eukaryotic cells to change their shape and to surround and engulf other
cells. Eukaryotic cells also have internal structures that prokaryotic cells
lack such as mitochondria and plastids.14 DNA in prokaryotic cells is usually
in the form of a single circular chromosome, while DNA in the nucleus of
eukaryotes contains linear chromosomes.15

Like prokaryotes, this cell is probably haploid (has a single unique DNA), most
eukaryotes are diploid (having two sets of DNA).16 17 18 19

All protists, fungi, animals and plant cells descend from this common
eukaryotic cell.20

208) The eukaryote flagellum and cilia evolve.

The eukaryote flagellum and cilia are structurally the same1 but are very
different from the prokaryote flagellum. The eukaryote flagellum is composed of
a characteristic "9+2" arrangement of microtubules {mIKrO-TUB-YU-LZ2 }. Unlike
the prokaryote flagella that rotate, the flagella and cilia of eukaryotic cells
undulate in a wave-like motion to propel the cell.3

The sperm cells of algae, animals, and some plants have flagella.4

Mitosis is the process in eukaryotic cell division in which the duplicated
chromosomes are separated and the nucleus divides resulting in two new nuclei,
each of which contains an identical copy of the parental chromosomes. Mitosis
is usually immediately followed by cytokinesis, the division of the cytoplasm.9

73) Eukaryote sex evolves. This is the first diploid cell and the first
zygote.18 19

Because of sex, two cells with different DNA can mix providing more genetic
variety. Having two chromosome sets also provides a backup copy of important
genes.20 21

All sexual species alternate between haploid and diploid. There are three main
different types of sexual life cycles; haplontic, haplodiplontic, and
diplontic.22 23

This begins the haplontic life cycle: in the entire life cycle mitosis only
occurs in the haploid phase; the only diploid cell is the zygote24 .25 26

This fusion of two haploid cells results in the first diploid single-celled
organism, which may then immediately divide back to two haploid cells.

Initially sex may be the fusion of two indistinguishable cells (isogamy) with
gender (anisogamy) only evolving later.27 Although possibly eukaryote cell
fusion and gender is directly descended from prokaryote conjugation.28

206) Meiosis evolves (one-step meiosis: a single cell division of a diploid
cell into two haploid cells).7 8

Meiosis, which looks similar to mitosis9 , is the process of cell division in
sexually reproducing organisms that reduces the number of chromosomes in
reproductive cells from diploid to haploid, leading to the production of
gametes in animals and spores in plants.10

Without the reduction back to haploid, genomes would double in size with every
generation.11

63) A parasitic bacterium, closely related to Rickettsia prowazekii, an aerobic
proteobacteria, is engulfed by an early eukaryotic cell. Over time a symbiotic
relationship evolves within the eukaryotic cell (an endosymbiosis) where the
Rickettsia become mitochondria.

Mitochondria are membrane-bound organelles found in the cytoplasm of almost all
eukaryotic cells, and are where cellular respiration occurs producing most of
the ATP in a eukaryotic cell.6

body parts in algae, plants, fungi and animals.7 8 9 10

For example, when a homeobox gene responsible for growing a mouse eye is added
to the cell of a fruit-fly embryo that is destined to be a leg, an extra fruit
fly eye is built on the leg.11 12

15) The first "plastids" evolve. Cyanobacteria form plastids through
endosymbiosis within a eukaryotic cell. Like mitochondria, these organelles
copy themselves and are not made by the cell DNA.4

Plastids provide the eukaryotic cell with food from photosynthesis and gain
protection by living within the cell.5

38) (Filamentous) multicellularity in Eukaryotes evolves.7 8

In this organism, unlike single cell eukaryotes, cells stay fastened together
after cell division.

Multicellularity seems to have arisen multiple times independently in
eukaryotes.9

85) Differentiation in a multicellular eukaryote evolves. In addition to gamete
(or spore) cells, there are somatic cells. Unlike gamete cells, somatic cells
are asexual (non-fusing). This is the start of death by aging.

Cell differentiation is how cells in a multicellular organism become
specialized to perform specific functions in a variety of tissues and organs.1

221) The first fungi. This begins the Fungi Kingdom.8 9

Like animals, fungi are heterotrophic (unable to build structural materials by
photosynthesis) and so must feed on other living things.10

Fungi live on organic material and are therefore generally parasitic (live or
feed on another organism to the detriment of the host organism11 ) or are
saprophytic (live on dead or decaying organic matter12 ). Some types of fungi,
however, form symbioses with plants.13

The earliest eye probably evolves from a plastid. The first proto eye is a
light sensitive area in a unicellular eukaryote.15 16

Eukaryotes are the first organisms to evolve the ability to follow light
direction in three dimensions in open water.17

20 21 22
Choanoflagellates are the closest relatives to the animals and may be
direct ancestors of sponges.23

There are about 140 species of choanoflagellates. Some are free-swimming,
propelling themselves with a flagellum. Others are attached by a stalk,
sometimes with several together in a colony.24

larger free moving organisms to evolve.12

This multicellularity is thought to be independently evolved, and not related
to the earlier filamentous multicellularity of prokaryotes like cyanobacteria,
and eukaryotes like algae.13 14

81) The first animal and first metazoan, the sponge evolves. This begins the
Animal Kingdom, and the Phylum Porifera; the sponges. There are only three
major kinds of metazoans: sponges, cnidarians, and bilaterians.15 16 17

The word "porifera" means "pore bearing" in Latin18 , and water continuously
flows through the pores in sponges19 .

Metazoans are multicellular and have differentiation (their cells perform
different functions). Sponges have cells that form a body wall, cells that
secrete the skeleton, contractile {KunTraKTL20 } cells, cells that digest food,
and other kinds of cell types.21 22 23 24

All sponge cells are totipotent and so are capable of regrowing a new sponge.25


Sponges have two layers, each a single cell thick. The outer surface is called
the pinacoderm {PiN-o-KO-DRM26 } and is made of cells called pinacocytes
{PiN-o-KO-SITS27 }. On the inner surface is the choanoderm {KOenO-DRM or
KO-aNo-DRM28 } which is made of flagellated cells called choanocytes
{KOenO-SITS29 or KO-aNo-SITS30 }. Between these two thin cellular sheets is
the jellylike31 mesohyl {mASuHIL32 }33

Some sponges can live for over 1000 years.34

79) The Metazoan Phylum "Placozoa" evolves.5 6

Placozoans look like amoebas but are multicellular.7 The only known species is
Trichoplax adhaerens {TriKOPlaKS8 aDHEReNZ}. Trichoplax lives in the sea and
feeds on single celled organisms, mostly algae. There are only 4 cell types in
Trichoplax compared to the more than 200 cell types in humans. Trichoplax has
two main cell layers, like a cnidarian or ctenophore. Between these two layers
are a few contractile cells that are similar to muscle cells9 , however
placozoans have no muscle or nerve cells10 11 .

ancestor of the Ctenophores and Cnidarians.9 10 This leads to the first
ganglion and brain.11 This is the earliest touch and sound detection, and
memory.12

As time continues in the evolution of the metazoans, the number of neurons
increases while the size of neurons decreases, just like transistors as
computers improve.13

523) The animal Phylum Ctenophora {Ti-noF-R-u5 } evolves (comb jellies).6

Like the Cnidarians, the Ctenophores are diploblastic; they have two embryonic
germ layers- the ectoderm {EKTeDRM7 } and the endoderm {eNDeDRM8 } which become
the adult epidermis and gastrodermis, respectively. The middle mesenchyme
{meSeNKIM9 }, a watery gelatinous fluid, never produces the complex organs seen
in triploblastic Metazoa.10

The main body cavity of the ctenophores is also
the digestive chamber, and they have a simple nerve net.11

82) The Animal Phylum Cnidaria {NIDAREeo} evolves (the ancestor of sea
anemones, sea pens, corals, and jellyfish).19 20 21 22 Cnidaria also evolve
the earliest animal eye.23 24

Cnidaria are primarily radially symmetrical animals with tentacles, have a
single body cavity with only one opening to take in food and to release wastes,
and have specialized stinging cells.25

Cnidarians have two alternate body plans, the polyp and the medusa {miDUSe26
}.27 A sea anemone is an example of a polyp: fixed to the ground with mouth on
top.28 A coral is a polyp that secretes a skeleton29 which it lives inside
of30 . The medusa form is upside down compared to the polyp form31 , and is
free swimming. A jellyfish has a typical medusa form.32

91) The start of the Ediacaran {EDEoKRiN6 } soft-bodied invertebrate fossils.7


The sudden appearance of Ediacaran fossils may relate to the accumulation of
free oxygen in the atmosphere and sea, which may permit an oxidative
metabolism.8

Because the Ediacaran animals are soft-bodied, they are infrequently
preserved.9

107) The Animals Bilaterians evolve (metazoans with two sided symmetry).23 24
25
This is the first triploblastic animal; an animal with a third embryonic
layer, the mesoderm {meZuDRM26 }.27 This is also the earliest animal brain.28


In most bilaterians food enters in one end (the mouth) and waste exits at the
opposite end (the anus). There is an advantage for sense organs like light,
sound, touch, smell, and taste detection to be located on the head near the
mouth to help with getting food.29

The earliest brain (ganglion and memory) develop in a bilaterian worm.30 31

This begins the Animal Subkingdom "Bilateria".32

worms and nemertodermatida).9 10 11

The Acoelomorpha lack a digestive track, anus and coelom.12 13

Flatworms have no lungs or gills and breathe through their skin. With no
circulating blood, their branched gut presumably transports nutrients to all
parts of the body.14

95) The coelom (SEleM) evolves in a bilaterian.3

The coelem is a fluid filled cavity that forms within the mesoderm and exists
between the gut and body wall4 in most triploblastic animals5 .

The advantage of a coelem is that it allows the body wall and gut wall to act
independently, and also that other organ systems can be developed in the
fluid-filled space. In addition, the fluid in the cavity can act as a
deformable skeleton.6

98) The first circulatory system evolves; blood vessels, and blood evolve in a
bilaterian.9 The first blood cells.10 Cnidarians and flatworms are at most
two sheets of tissue thick and so allow gas exchange and nutrient distribution
by diffusion, but larger animals with thicker tissues require a circulatory
system to distribute materials.11 12 13

The circulatory system transports molecules like gases, food, and waste to and
from individual cells.14 15

The difference between protostomes and deutrostomes arises during embryonic
development. In protostomes, the first indentation of the gastrula (an early
stage of the embryo29 ) develops into the mouth and the second indentation
develops into the anus. The reverse is true for the deuterostomes.30

311) The Bilaterians Chaetognatha {KE-ToG-nutu14 15 } evolve (Arrow Worms).16

The earliest teeth evolve. Animals start to eat other animals.17 18

The evolution of teeth and animal predation starts an "arms race" that rapidly
transforms ecosystems around the Earth.19 Teeth and shells evolve as
advantages to survival.20

345) The Deuterostome Phylum Hemichordata evolves; The "Hemichordates", the
ancestor of pterobranchs {TARuBrANKS9 }10 and acorn worms).11

Adult Pterobranchs are sessile, fastening to solid structures, but the younger
(or larval) form is free swimming, and is thought to have retained this form
before evolving into tunicates and then the first fish.12

347) The Deuterostome Phylum Chordata evolves. Chordates are a very large group
that include all tunicates {TUNiKiTS}, fishes, amphibians, reptiles, mammals,
and birds.15 16 Chordates get their name from the notochord {nOTe-KORD17 },
the cartilage rod that runs along the back of the animal, in the embryo if not
in the adult.18

The ancestor of all chordates evolves "upside-down": unlike earlier
invertebrates who have a ventral nerve cord (near the belly19 ) and a dorsal
heart (near the back20 ), this ancestor and all later vertebrates have a dorsal
nerve cord and a ventral heart.21

117) The earliest animal shell (or skeleton) evolves.6
This is the earliest
evidence of animals eating other animals (predation).7 8
This begins the
appearance of small shelly fossils and deep burrows correlated with a decline
in stromatolites, possibly from feeding.9

The earliest animal shells are made by tiny organisms with simple tubelike
skeletons, such as Cloudina and Sinotubulites10 11 in addition to sponge
skeleton fossils.12

The shell of Cloudina is made of Calcium carbonate (CaCO3)13 , and are possibly
made by some kind of worm.14

Predatory bore holes have been found in Cloudina shells. This is the oldest
evidence of predation known.15 16

that molt (lose their outer skin) as they grow.9 10 This is the ancestor of
round worms, and arthropods (which includes insects and crustaceans {also known
as "shell-fish"}).11

101) Segmentation evolves (body parts are repeated serially, for example
vertebrae).7 8

Some think that segmentation evolved independently in annelid worms,
arthropods, and vertebrates. But the universality of Homeobox genes, evolved
over a billion years earlier9 , implies that all segmented species may share a
common segmented ancestor.10

Muscles for pumping blood and for maintaining adequate blood pressure can be
divided into three groups: contractile blood vessels (found in nemerteans and
annelids), ostiate {oSTEAT5 } hearts (found in arthropods), and chambered
hearts (found in molluscs and vertebrates).6

339) The Ecdysozoa Phylum Arthropoda evolves; the "Arthropods".7

Arthropods can be compared to a segmented worm encased in a rigid exoskeleton.8


The phylum Arthropoda is the largest phylum in the animal kingdom. Arthropods
include the trilobites, the crustaceans (shrimps, crabs, and lobsters), the
Myriapoda (centipedes and millipedes), the Chelicerata (arachnids and horseshoe
crabs) and the insects.9 All arthropods have a segmented body covered by an
exoskeleton containing chitin, which serves as both armor and as a surface for
muscle attachment.10

350) The Chordata Vertebrates evolve.4 This Subphylum, Vertabrata, contains
most fishes, and all amphibians, reptiles, mammals, and birds.

The characteristic features of the Vertebrata are a vertebral column, or
backbone, and a cranium, which protects the central nervous system (brain and
spinal cord) and major sense organs.5 This earliest vertebrate skeleton is
made completely of cartilage.6

411) The first flying animal, an arthropod insect, the ancestor of all winged
insects (Pterygota {TARiGOTu12 }). The earliest extant winged insects are the
Ephemeroptera {eFeMeroPTRo13 }: Mayflies, and the Odonata {ODenoDo14 }:
Dragonflies and Damselflies.15 16 17

Insect wings evolve only once, and all winged insects descend from the first
winged insect.18 19

The development of wings may have helped early insects to escape predators20
and to move over larger distances to find new habitats21 .

384) The first hard-shell egg.14 The Tetrapods Amniota {aMnEOtu15 } evolve;
the ancestor of all reptiles, mammals and birds and the first hard-shell egg.16
The hard-shell egg is waterproof.17 This is the start of vertebrate internal
fertilization, because on land the egg cannot be fertilized as most fishes and
amphibians do, by a male swimming near the eggs and spraying them with sperm.
Amniote males and females must copulate {KoPYelAT18 } so that the sperm can
reach the eggs inside the female.19

All living amniotes lay hard-shelled eggs, except most mammals and some snakes
and lizards, where egg laying has been replaced by live birth.20

The egg shell of amniotes may be flexible (like the eggs of many lizards) or
mineralized and hard (like the eggs of birds).21

6331) The Amniota divide into the Sauropsida {SOR-roP-SiDu9 } and the Synapsida
{Si-naP-Si-Du10 }.11

The Sauropsids have two major lineages: the Parareptilia (turtles) and the
Eureptilia (dinosaurs, crocodiles and birds).12 The Synapsids also have two
major lineages: the pelycosaurs (which are sail-backed amniotes) and the
therapsids (which are mammal-like amniotes).13

Gymnosperm is Greek for "Naked Seed".16 A gymnosperm reproduces by a seed that
is in direct contact with the environment, as opposed to an angiosperm whose
seeds are enclosed by fruits.17 18

6359) The Neoptera Holometabola {HoLomeTaBolu or HOlOmeTABolu7 8 } evolve:
Holometabolous insects: (insects that undergo complete metamorphosis, the
ancestor of beetles, bees, true flies, and butterflies).9

The holometabolous insects account for nearly 85% of all insects.10

The Holometabola are insects that have complete metamorphosis (or
holometabolous development). Unlike hemimetabolous insects in which the
immature structures (legs, eyes, antennae, etc.) must also serve the adults,
holometabolous insects have a morphologically reduced larval stage11 and
acquire a completely new body during the pupal stage.12

232) The earliest endothermic (or "warm-blooded") and hair growing animal, a
therapsid.7 8

Endothermy is the physiological maintenance, by a body, of a constant
temperature independent of the external environmental temperature. Hair for
insulation is correlated to endothermy.9

Both birds and mammals are endothermic (also called "warm blooded") as opposed
to other vertebrates (like amphibians and crocodiles10 ) which are ectothermic
(or "cold blooded") and cannot internally generate heat.11

Endothermy allows birds and mammals to maintain a high and relatively constant
body temperature, even at rest, during a wide range of external environmental
conditions.12

6283) The Saurischian {SoriSKEiN9 } Dinosaurs split into two major lines: The
Sauropodomorpha (SoroPiDimORFu10 } and the Therapoda {tiRoPiDu11 }.12

The Sauropodomorphs are divided into prosauropods and sauropods, are mostly
plant-eating, and include the large, long-necked dinosaurs like Apatosaurus.13


The Theropod {tERePoD14 } dinosaurs are bipedal and carnivorous and include
Allosaurus, Tyrannosaurus, and Velociraptor. All birds descend from a Therapod
ancestor.15 16

Fossils of therapod dinosaurs from China indicate that feathers may have
originally evolved on non-flying reptiles for insulation (or courting6 ) and
not for flight.7

At least one known feathered dinosaur can probably glide, which suggests that
flapping flight evolves as an extension of gliding from trees.8 9

245) The Seed plants angiosperms evolve. The first flowering plant.15 16 17

Almost all grains, beans, nuts, fruits, vegetables, herbs and spices come from
plants with flowers. Much of our clothing comes from flowering plants too, for
example: cotton and linen are made from "fibers" of flowering plants, as are
rope and burlap. Many commercial dyes and drugs also come from flowering
plants.18

Angiosperms represent approximately 80 percent of all the known green plants
now living. The angiosperms are vascular seed plants in which the ovule (or
egg) is fertilized and develops into a seed in an enclosed hollow ovary. The
ovary is usually enclosed in a flower, the part of the angiosperm that contains
the male or female reproductive organs or both.19 The fruit is the ovary of a
plant which encloses seeds.20

163) The Mammals Eutheria evolve: Placental mammals.4

The Eutheria are mammals that have a placenta. The placenta is an organ that
forms in the uterus to aid in the exchange of food and wastes between the blood
of the mother and fetus through an umbilical cord.5 6

Placental mammals include all living mammals except marsupials and monotremes.
The placenta allows for a longer developmental period within the womb which may
give the placentals a selective advantage.7

The first stamp (or seal).6

The first writing begins as symbols for numbers on clay bulla (hollow clay
containers that hold clay tokens). These symbols represent the quantity and
kind of tokens inside the bulla.7 8 9
Hollow bullae are eventually replaced
by solid clay tablets with the same impressions.10

3087) The spectral lines emitted when a substance is burned are used to
determine the atomic composition of the substance. That each element emits and
absorbs light at the same specific frequencies is recognized.4

The first element is identified from the light of the Sun; sodium. The finding
that a spectral emission line can only be reversed to an absorption line when
the absorber is colder than the emitter.5 6

Sounds, images, smells, touches, emotions, and muscle contractions can now be
remotely activated in a brain by sending light particles to intracellular
devices.

6174) Earth is completely filled with living objects, and has a population of
10 quintillion {KWiNTiLYeN1 } (1019) humans.
There is no more molten material inside
the Earth. All the molten compressed matter was extracted, cooled and consumed,
mostly as building materials, fuel, and food. Earth is completely filled with
tunnels, rooms, and living objects.

4686) The star clusters in the outer areas are pulled closer to the center
making the galaxy more spherical, and the galaxy develops a massive propulsion
system in order to go get more matter to consume. The Milky Way is now a
spherical globular galaxy.

4688) The Milky Way and Andromeda globular galaxies join.4

The Andromeda and Milky Way globular galaxies may merge into a single larger
galaxy, which then resumes the search for a smaller galaxy to consume. Natural
selection must also create a large scale "eat or be eaten", "predator-prey"
existence for galaxies similar to that on Earth.5
