The Flawless Order of the Universe Falsifies Claims That It Came About by Chance 51
If the viscosity was higher, the controlled movement of
large macromolecules and particularly structures such
as mitochondria and small organelles would be impos-
sible, as would processes like cell division. All the vital
activities of the cell would be effectively frozen, and
cellular life of any sort remotely resembling that with
which we are familiar would be impossible. The devel-
opment of higher organisms, which is critically depen-
dent on the ability of cells to move and crawl around
during embryogenesis, would certainly be impossible
if the viscosity of water was even slightly greater than
it is. 10
