据参考消息网:英媒称,科学家发现了34.8亿年前的化石,他们认为生命有可能起源于陆地,而非海洋。据英国《独立报》网站5月9日报道,这些变成化石的气泡和多层岩石结构中显示出来的微生物可能是陆地上已知的最古老生命形态——比之前发现的陆地上最古老生命形态要早5.8亿年。
More than 550 million years ago, the oceans were teeming with flat, soft-bodied creatures that fed on microbes and algae and could grow as big as bathmats. Today, researchers at the University of Cali...
