Summary Introduction
To explain: The major steps that probably occurred in the origin of cells.
Introduction: Earth was formed before 4.6 billion years from the sun due to the continuous bombardment of huge rocks and ices. When Earth was formed, chemical evolution began, which led to the formation organic molecules. Organic molecules led to evolution of first cells and thus, life evolved.
