Thomas Malthus was an English economist. Wrote a book called An Essay on the Principle of Population – theorized that although the food supply increases arithmetically (1‚2‚3‚… etc.)‚ population grows geometically (exponentially) (2‚4‚8‚16‚…etc).

Toxicology Lab 1. In this investigation‚ a wide range of concentrations of Sodium Chloride (NaCl) solution were created and the effects that they had on radish seeds were tested. This ultimately created a doseresponse experiment in which it was detectable whether or not radish seeds were a reliable bioassay for the toxicity of NaCl. The goal of this experiment was to determine a correlation between toxicity and seed germination/radicle

macromolecules * Packaging of these molecules into protobionts * The origin of self replicating molecules that made inheritance possible. 2. A.I. Oparin‚ and J.B.S. Haldane hypothesized a reducing environment. Stanley Miller and Harold Urey did lab experiments that showed that the abiotic synthesis of organic molecules in a reducing atmosphere is possible. These would occur in water for oceans. 3. The first genetic material was probably RNA. Early protobionts with self replicating‚ catalytic
