Annual Review of Genetics, 1974 The origin of life is in a sense a genetic problem, for, as H. J. Muller pointed out many years ago, the essential attribute that identifies living matter is its capacity to replicate itself and its variants (1). Because this uniquely biological property has its physical basis in proteins and nucleic acids, the goal of modern work on the origin of life

Abstract All living beings use the same genetic code; hence they derive from a common ancestor. Carbonaceous meteorites and comets contain organic matter, whose carbon isotopic signature points to an abiotic origin. However, these extraterrestrial precursor molecules of life never reach the complexity of the large molecules of living ...

The American Biology Teacher, 2021 The question of the origin of life was probably asked as soon as humans developed self-consciousness. Our ancestors realized very early that plants, animals, and humans, are distinct from non-living entities on Earth such as rocks, water, and air. Where did life come from?
