Page 172 - Later, organic colloids would be formed, possessing meta-stable properties, and these would begin to show the properties possessed by living matter of balanced equilibrium, and up-and-down energy transformations following variations in environment. There can be little question that such energy changes ~as are above described occur at present, and are leading always to fresh evolutions of more complex organic substances, and so towards life, and equally is it true that they must occur on any planet...
Page 172 - Without the presence of organic material, when life was arising in the world, any continuance of life would, however, be impossible. The process of evolution of simple organic substances having once begun, as now experimentally demonstrated, substances of more and more complex organic nature would arise from these with additional uptake of energy. Later, organic colloids would be formed, possessing meta-stable properties, and these would begin to show the properties possessed by living matter of...
