Micro worms are free-living nematodes known as Panagrellus redivivus or sour paste nematodes. They are often purchased as food for fish fry and can be cultivated fairly easily at home. In the wild, micro worms may be found in a variety of places that are moist and contain traces of yeast and grains. However, their size makes them easy to overlook.

Some belive that first livingbeing came from outer space, but I belive that Primitive soup created the first living thing.

Answer:

The first living things were created by the proces of abiognesis. This is the formation of increasingly more complex molecules which ultimately exhibit the potential for replication. The Link has a good description of the stages involved in this.

Many theories are available - The most simplistic answer is a single, abiotic cell that was formed millions of years ago would have seperated, and multiplied. Each of the subsequent cells would have changed to suit their environment.

Either that, or God made them.

What was the first thing on earth?

Some/ many people and scientists say that monkeys, gorillas, apes etc were the first living thing to be on Earth. BUT, they are all wrong, as the first living thing on earth were fish, sounds stupid I know! But First, there were fish in the sea, then one day A few brave fish came out of the water, some died, but others evolved into monkeys and revolution continued to us today! but the first thing EVER on earth was bacteria and single celled things. ============================================ The first living objects were simple bacterias which originated in the early oceans. These were soft bodied organisms which evolved into jellyfish and similar soft bodied multi-cellular organisms. About 500 million years ago fishes started to form in the oceans, and eventually some of these reptiles evolved to be able to breathe the air that was becoming increasingly oxygen rich. These reptiles became increasingly massive and ornate and were the dinosaurs. During the time of the dinosaurs - the name incidentally means "Terrible Lizard" small mammals started to appear. When the dinosaurs became extinct the mammals had a head start and evolved into the variety of mammals that we now know which also includes the human race.


Is there a life that doesn't need oxygen?

Yes. There are organisms called anaerobic bacteria which do not need oxygen. To some organisms, called obligate anaerobes, oxygen is actually toxic. The first living things on Earth were obligate anaerobes.


Why is science uncertain?

Scientists cannot be certain about how life began on earth because there is no evidence on where the first living thing came from.

How earth started with living things?

well when the earth was young it was hit by a lot of frozen comets and when they melted the water joined with the water vapor given off by erupting volcanoes and that created oceans and stuff. and the oceans were perfect breeding grounds for bacteria and those were the first living things on earth
