Nevertheless, most scientists hold that the first organisms on Earth were much like bacteria of today. But several features of the biochemistry of life suggest that bacteria arenât so ancient after all. In fact, in some respects, the cells of our own bodies tell us more about the evolution of life than bacteria do.
History of Earth's atmosphere. Originally, the Earth's atmosphere had almost no free oxygen. It gradually changed to what it is today, over a very long time (see Great Oxygenation Event). The process began with cyanobacteria. They were the first organisms to make free oxygen by photosynthesis.
