    Conclusion

    This theories helped me understand how has the way of thinking of scientists about the nature of life has changed over the past years. Also how the discovery of new technology and resources helps us to research and propose newer and more accurate theories, because as we have seen the work of decades can be turnt down within a day thanks to evidence and new information. No one knows it all but if the desires for enriching the knowledge are true anyone can achieve a lot of great things.
