                   Until the 20th century, it was assumed—given the early state of scien-
                   tific knowledge—that living things had very simple structures and that
                   inanimate substances could randomly come together and form a living
                   cell. However, the 20th and 21st centuries saw a turning point in the his-
                   tory of science. Once the complex structure of the cell was discovered,
                   it was realized that coincidence had no place in the origin of life.
