Can Chemistry naturally form an ''engine'' ?
« on: November 03, 2024, 02:45:59 PM »
An ''engine'' requires intelligent design ,each component placed in a specific position by order .

The human body is a complex design , can chemistry form this ''engine'' naturally?

Is there any evidence to suggest that chemistry can form complex designs ?

Define "engine".

Does Krebs cycle count as one?

In the context I am using , I am defining ''engine'' as an actual internal combustion engine . The metaphor being representive of intelligent design and complex form. Placement of parts being specifically ordered by design .

The human form or other animal species forms are complex forms that have components  that are specifically positioned such as eyes , ears , a nose etc.


I don't believe your Krebs cycle is representive of this , so no the Krebs cycle doesn't answer the question and isn't the sort of ''engine'' I am referring to .

''A Petri dish (alternatively known as a Petri plate or cell-culture dish) is a shallow transparent lidded dish that biologists use to hold growth medium in which cells can be cultured,[1][2] originally, cells of bacteria, fungi and small mosses.''

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Petri_dish


My question is asking whether we have ever observed a sample on a petri dish or by other means , evolve into a complex form that has specific placement of ''parts''?

Then the answer is "no".

And is about as useless as the question.

Locking the thread, I don't see how it can produce anything remotely valuable.
