Water exhibits this same type of stratification. The addition of minerals to this water increased the cohesion of the tertiary water particles, whose form was more distinct than that of high-purity water. Furthermore, when the concentration of minerals was varied (from 3.5 to 10 ppm), the tertiary particles rearranged into linear patterns. Furthermore, the solution consisted of solutes and solvents, each of which had dispersed particle structures.

These results show that minerals have a structure different from that of elements. Furthermore, the results clarify the structure of water and give us a thorough understanding of the complexities of the true state of the dissolution of minerals.

Gas composed of C02:N2 = 1:1, which represented the make-up of today's atmosphere, was bubbled in the water-mineral solution. When this solution was exposed to ultraviolet rays for 100-500 h, important organic compounds found in the bodies of living organisms were readily synthesized. We have tried twice of quantitative analysis of this solution aud we obtained the results of nine types of amino acid and 14 types of the same. To condense the time frame in our attempt to create life, we added lysozymes to the solutions in which the above organic compounds were synthcsized. Amino acids and adenines of certain nucleic acids were formed by the reaction of the minerals to enzymes. After 2-3 days, microbe-like objects began to appear in succession. These objects did not move for the first 2 or 3 days, but after that they initiated their own particular movements. This is fundamentary different from Brownian motion in that movement began after a period of immobility. Furthermore, the microbe-like objects did not divide or reproduce, they merely appeared in succession. During about a 2-month period, they began to form two distinct patterns of growth: one-dimensional chains, and clusters of colonies. The one-dimensional chain group maintained their original form as they branched out and grew into chains. The other group formed colonies and grew into round clusters of about 10 μm in size, coming together when the chain group started to branch off. During this period of growth, more microbe-like objects began to successively appear.

The microbe-like objects in both the one-dimensional chain group and the globular cluster group were doughnut-shaped, although the former grouped together without changing their form.

These microbe-like objects were doughnut-shaped. They had no flagella but could move by waggling themselves. This movement resembles that of red corpuscles. Because movement began after a period of immobility, we concluded that the body of an organism forms before life, and that the movement that we observed in these objects was a result of life inside the body.

Conventional research has been limited to substances or bodies, i. e. bodies that contain living organisms. If research continues in such a direction, no organism will be completely understood. We believe that future research should look beyond the body as a substance and study the essence of life itself.
