Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Oparian and Haldane proposed that the first form of life could have come from pre-existing non-living organic molecules leg. RNA, protein eye.) and that formation of life preceded by chemical evolution, Le, formation of diverse organic molecules from inorganic constituents. Meteorites are hypothesised to be another source for early organic molecules as meteorite content contains some similar organic components as found in early earth's atmosphere. The stony meteorites are well known to contain rich mix of organic compounds. This analysis of meteorite content indicates that similar processes are occurring elsewhere in space
