i.~onsidering all the physJcochemical and biological factors and their
interrelations. and particularly the adaptability of life to adverse con-
ditions and the effect of living matter upon the soil, it is concluded that
the occurrence of life on Mars is more in the i·ealm of probability than
of possibility. 'fhe dark areas on the Martian surface might indeed repre-
sent an ecological system, or ecosystem, but of a level far below that
found on earth. in terms of carbon biology and geocentric analogy, the
conclusion is justified that the dark surface area can be of a biospheric
nature.
