"Physicists have created blobs of
gaseous plasma that can grow,
replicate and communicate -
fulfilling most of the traditional
requirements for biological cells.
Without inherited material they
cannot be described as alive, but
the researchers believe these
curious spheres may offer a
radical new explanation for how
life began.
A distinct boundary layer that
confines and separates an object
from its environment is one of the
four main criteria generally used
to define living cells.
Sanduloviciu decided to find out
if his cells met the other
criteria: the ability to
replicate, to communicate
information, and to metabolise and
grow."
