Recently, I've been researching heavily the topic of fungi... which eventually led me to think about algae.
My question is based on a scenario as follows: If I were to leave a large jar of water sitting out in a room for a long enough period of time, it would start to form algae along the glass. However, if matter cannot be created or destroyed, from where did that algae originate? Is it already in the tap water or air, simply waiting for the proper moment to manifest?
