Formation of the Earth does not lay on rocks.
Changes of landscape are caused by volcanic eruptions and plate movements.
Changes in rocks cannot give us a clue of the formation of atmosphere

The Earth is a unity. Biosphere cannot be seperated from the Earth.
A common conceptual mistake caused by our arrogance.
Differences in presence in-between animals and plants because of a brain (a central nerve system), which responsible for thinking.
The first cell does not come from space.
It belongs to the Earth (or it probably does not exist)
.

.
