    See, you are wrong again. It is mostly biology.

    Why would I? If there is a mass increase it is negligible.

    Picky, picky, picky - there would be NO biology without chemistry!!



    Why??? Maybe because it was a part of what was under discussion??:bugeye:

    And there IS an increase in mass which, while very small, does add up over billions of years.

    Of course there would be. Biology started already before there was chemistry. It was called the natural history of life.

    Yeah - right! I suppose you also believe in the Easter Boar, eh? Chemistry was still chemical reactions even before it had that name...

    Please explain evolution with chemistry.

    good luck!

    To be fair I thought he meant space dust. Actually Spurious was entirely correct and in agreement with us. Although he was be a bit off a nitpick

    Har! Let's see YOU explain it without chemistry!!!!!!!

    Easy:
    within a population there is variation between the individuals. Some of these individuals are more succesful relative to other to produce offspring. At least some of this variation is hereditary. The selective fitness of an individual, that is its relative success to produce viable offspring, is known as natural selection. Cumulative directional selection can lead to the emergence of or specification of form and function; evolution.

    Now you do it with chemistry. You can't.

    Or alternatively look here:

    Nothing at all on chemistry.

    Total dust fall as a fraction of the current Earth mass ...

    [In other words, the Earth's total mass increases by one tenth of one millionth, or one one-hundred-thousandth of a percent, over the entire 4.5 billion years]

    Calculate the volume occupied by the total 4.5 billion year dustfall calculated above ... Assume dust density 2.0 g/cm3 (Love, Joswiak & Brownlee, 1994)

    You're just being silly. Without chemical reactions there is no life at all. And I'm sure you know that quite well.

    No, explain evolution with chemistry. You claimed you could. You do it. coward.

    You're very transparent, Monkey - doing nothing but being provocative in an attempt to goad me into loosing my cool. I'm no coward and you know that I never claimed that evolution could be be explained through chemistry. BUT, as I said, try explaining it without it.

    I think even most school children understand that chemical changes in DNA are necessary for evolution to proceed. Without those chemical changes and rearrangements, evolution would have halted. Mutations aren't just simply "biological" changes ONLY - there's chemistry at the base of every one of them.

    explain evolution with chemistry.

    you can't.

    so shut up that biology is chemistry.

    Oh, I'll shut up alright - because arguing with a flame-baiter is usless. I'm not going to give you what you want.

    Of course you shut up now. Because you were utterly wrong.

    As usual.

    Okay.

    What makes up the molecules that make you up?
