The area where has the high energy aggregated dust and different materials together in the universe, then the earliest planets were formed. Based on Gaia theory, our earth is just the sum of energy and it is \u201ca single, self-regulating entity\u201d. Each creature grows up by absorbing the sun\u2019s energy and the energy transfers between different spacies. Besides, from the article, Gaia is Symbiosis.
