You can't create something from nothing. They had to start somewhere. However they probably just took a single cell and modified the DNA A LOT!
With the right technology, they could have easily created life. Nature did it, did it not?With the Precursors being as advanced as they are, I'd say yes.
Humans today can modify bacteria. We have glow in the dark mice (I've seen it)!
So at the Precursors' level, they could very well heavily modify DNA to the point where it is a new species.
If Forerunners could alter the evolution of whole species, then I find it very likely that Precursors (who were a whole tier above the Forerunners as they were cataloged Tier 0 [with the Forerunners being Tier 1 as well as Ancient Humanity and Covenant/UNSC being Tier 2/3 respectively]) could create it.Create? If you want to call it that. I see it has modification of existing materials.
But they had to start somewhere. Even a "blank" cell counts as starting material.
They didn not just poof up material from nowhere.
No, we mean created the life from scratch. Not modifying existing cells, but actually creating life from the ground up, right down to the carbons and amino acids.
Their technology was limitless, doing this does not seem like a stretch.
