WEEK 2

Hello readers,

So for the second entry, I would like to share my second week in this BSM 3101 class . Before I've been exposed to the contents of history and origin outline, I'm thinking "oh no, it must be a boring class because we're going to learn about history and kind of thing again" No, I would say that i'm absolutely wrong. In Dr Parameswari class, we had so much fun because we learn theory about cells and how it evolve and within same time we learnt and gained knowledge.

For my second week in learning BSM 3001, I learnt about History of life. This topic conveys about the condition of earth for billions years age. That is true that our beloved Earth is extremely old. I feel amazed. The Evolution theory is being applied in this topic. What I have learnt here in this topic is Evolution is Real. The Earth was the first to start the evolution form anoxic to oxic ! The evolution of Earth is slow but continuosly until now. What I learnt in this topic the progress of earth evolution from billions years ago. The scientist pictured condition Earth in 4 billion years ago is chaos and inhabit place. There is no oxygen and no life at all during that time. The condition of earth is very unstable with a lot of natural uncontrollable disasters occur frequently.

The picture is used to pictured the condition of Earth in early age. Very unstable and not suitable to live. In this second week's topic, I learnt about how the 'life' is being created. Life is begin with a simple inorganic molecules in the atmosphere resulted from the natural disasters occured.

The picture shows the evolution of atmosphere and the begining in how the life is created. From inorganic molecules to oranic molecules and becomes more complex and keep increasing the complexity till the life is created.

The timeline of early organisms start to exist. For this evolution,in how the organic molecules formed there is two theory which is 1) Comet theory and 2) Prebiotic broth hypothesis theory. The comet theory stated that the first organic molecule come from outer space. But this theory have no prove.

The prebiotic broth hypothesis evidence which conducted by Miller and Urey. I nearly forgot to mention another thing that I learnt in week 2 that related to week 1 topic which is "Selection in Action". It is a lecture video all about Evolution Theory.

We have used the technology such as Youtube to view 2 video and been exposed to many kind of education's ways of learning such as mind map. We also get COMPLICATED ASSIGNMENT . Haha , we need to create cartoon on how the evolution. So, me and my fellow group members draw Lithipodius Nulla, a simple creature at the sandy-like environment. Im not a good drawer and I take part on creating storyline and make the script for the character. I also blod the drawing and colour the cartoon. I AM VERY PROUD BECAUSE THIS IS MY FIRST EXPERIENCE TO FINISH THE CARTOON . HAHAHAHA.

So, one of the interesting fact in this week lecture is to know how old scientest classify organisms. Furthermore, we also got to know many kinds of species that we are not familiar with. Even we have heard their name before, but we did not know the special characteristics of the them.

I love to know facts and like to discover things that caught my attention and make me curious to know. After class, I open the Youtube to get some extra information about evolution. Many facts about origin have been exposed in the second week of lecture. I hope, I can learn the next topic with more interesting facts beside only learn based on the notes. I think, that's all for my second entry. Thanks for reading!
