sent evidence that no such gradual transition could have taken
place. The mechanisms that carry out these chemical processes in-
side a single cell cannot have developed over time. A bacterium
cannot exist without all these features, and cannot survive if even
one of the proteins that constitute it is missing. Yet the necessity of

sudden development contradicts Darwin's theory.
✹ According to Darwinists, evolution began with microorgan-
isms. Single-celled algae living in water underwent changes and
later, emerged onto land. First of all, it is impossible for algae, with
prokaryotic cell features, to suddenly develop eukaryotic features

and turn into a plant. The type of cell cannot turn into the other.
Second, algae requires a special metabolism and various systems to
live in water. To live on dry land, its entire metabolism must change
to adapt to the land environment. That is impossible, even for the
single-celled algae.
✹ The theory of evolution cites the transition of algae from wa-

ter to land as proof. However, this is not proof at all. Despite being
members of the same family, land and water algae have totally dif-

Single-celled living things (prokaryotic cells) and very different structures to
multi-celled ones (eukaryotic cells). Eukaryotic cells also differ widely
amongst themselves. It is impossible for these cell types to turn into one an-
