I AM STUDYING BIOORGANIC WITH Dr. SWITZER WHO IS A PROFESSOR IN UCR.
MY GROUP IS INTERESTED IN WHAT IS THE ORIGIN OF LIFE.
THERE
ARE LOTS OF HYPOTHESIS. BUT WE PREFER ONE OF THEM.
THAT IS THE
PRE-RNA WORLD. WHY?
RNA HAS TWO KEY FUNCTIONS SUCH AS STORAGE
OF INFORMATION AND CATALITIC CHARACTERS.
HE ORIGIN OF LIFE WAS STARTED FROM THE PRE-RNA
THEN WENT TO THE RNA.
AFTER THE RNA WORLD, OTHER BIO POLYMERS
(PROTEIN and DNA)
WAS PRODUCED.
