The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- The prevailing scientific hypothesis is that the transition from non-living to living entities on Earth was not a single event, but a process of increasing complexity involving the formation of a habitable planet, the prebiotic synthesis of organic molecules, molecular self-replication, self-assembly, autocatalysis, and the emergence of cell membranes.
- The transition from non-life to life has not been observed experimentally, but many proposals have been made for different stages of the process.
- The study of abiogenesis aims to determine how pre-life chemical reactions gave rise to life under conditions strikingly different from those on Earth today.
Why it is Rare
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Abiogenesis article was read about 430,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 94 and blocks with 95: each hit it takes is cut by 38 %.
