Life is the ability to grow, reproduce, and
respond to such stimuli as light, heat, and
sound. It is thought that life on Earth began
about 4 billion years ago. The earliest
fossil evidence of life is threadlike chains
of cells discovered in 1980 in deposits in
North West Australia that have been dated as
3½ billion years old.
