What Biological Factors Would Differ From Life Now

Without the existence of Man, will the World be a better, or worse, place?

What Biological Factors Would Differ From Life Now
Earth

Imagine if the world were re-created, making us go all the way back before the Big Bang ever occurred. Nothing but vast darkness and combusted gases. In this new world, Man would not exist.

Without Man existing, I tend to wonder if the world would be a better, or worse, place for life to exist.

And if life were to exist, would it exist as it does now?

What biological factors would differ from life now?

This is always a thought that enters my mind, mainly because we are not promised our existence. We act as if the Earth was made just for our evolution, yet we forget that the Earth was created from a combustion of gases and dismembered particles floating through space.

If the world were re-created, there are no promises we would be a part of it.

One slight change in atmospheric pressure, or even a slight change in the charges of any element in the periodic table, would change the way life exists on this new Earth.

What form of species would exist on this planet?

and if any were to exist, what would be their biological history?

Would life even exist, or would it be an inhabitable planet like Mercury or Venus?

The Earth has existed and has been creating life for billions and billions of years, who's to say that the re-creation of this world has no chance of happening once our world is swallowed by the death of the Sun?

Of course, that will not occur for millions, possibly billions, of years, but what happens to the Solar System once that occurs?

Earth will no longer exist.

There will be no place to call home.

There will be no one to call it home.

The destruction of the Earth will cause the extinction of Man.

The extinction of Man will give life another chance.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
