Viruses are at the heart of this century-old debate. Viruses<span> are parasites that infect plants, animals, fungi and bacteria. They consist of genetic material surrounded by a protein coat and are unable to grow or reproduce without a host. The classification of viruses has confused scientists for nearly 100 years. Originally they were viewed as poisons. In fact, the word ''virus'' is Latin for ''poison.'' They have since been viewed as living creatures, then mere bio-chemical compounds, and, most recently, somewhere in between chemical compounds and lifeforms.</span>Non-cellular life<span> refers to organisms, such as viruses, that exist without any cells, and it is a very controversial topic. The cell theory, which is one of the fundamental tenets of biology, states that all living things are composed of cells and that cells are the basic units of life. So the idea that something can be considered alive without having cells is an issue that is up for debate.

At room temperature or about 25°C, potassium nitrate (KNO₃) has a solubility of about 38.7 grams per 100 mL of water. At this concentration, the KNO₃ solution is said to be saturated since it already contains the maximum amount of solute that the solvent can dissolve, thus, if you add more KNO₃ salt, it will no longer dissolve. When the solution has less solute than that of the saturation concentration, it is called an unsaturated solution, thus if you add more solute, the KNO₃ salt will still dissolve. If the concentration of the solution is greater than its solubility, the solution is said to be supersaturated, thus, if excess KNO₃ salt is added, crystals will start to form.
Answer:
Explanation:
Considering the atmosphere of the primitive earth to have contained water vapor, carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, methane, and ammonia and/or nitrogen, then in the presence of an energy source, such as sunlight or lightning, a number of small molecules like hydrogen cyanide, HCN, are formed.

Glycolysis is the first step in the respiration pathway. The amount of oxygen available after glycolysis determines whether the rest of the reaction is aerobic (Krebs Cycle and Electron Transport Chain) or anaerobic (Fermentation).
