>>12287636Well the meaning of duck is coded in its DNA so in some sense the duck emerges from the microscopic
However as you’ve phrased it, it may seem as an accident that the duck emerges randomly from the microscopic
In fact the duck consumes organic matter, dissolves it within to the microscopic (AAs, FAs, etc) and then forces the microscopic into duck-nature through catabolism.
It reproduces the same way, small organisms growing more complex every few generations from gene duplications, etc. At the bottom of these turtles is something extremely simple that was nevertheless able to replicate, probably a vesicular RNA.
