Unless the instructions were present in the first simple celled organism that were needed for the biological development of all life forms to come, then extra info would be needed along the way.
Weren't you already shown how more 'info' can come about through mutation?

Re: Information Test
but it doesn't have to be THAT specific of a definition to discuss the idea.
Why not choose these for arranging:
fish, protozoa, monkey, worm
It seems a lot less difficult to arrange these in their amount of 'info' even if the deffinition of 'info' is unclear.
