Default Scientists Create RNA from Primordial Soup

The new findings map out a series of simple, efficient chemical reactions that could have formed molecules of RNA, a close cousin of DNA, from the basic materials available more than 3.85 billion years ago, researchers report online May 13 in Nature.

God created the world over 200 years ago when they had the boston tea party and wrote the declaration of the constitution. Muslims are trying to kill you, gays are getting married, and all of them are jealous of our freedom.

In closing, I'd like to mention abortion.


thanks,

Would that be Campbell's brand Primordial soup, or Progresso?

Actually, you may have dug yourself a hole here, strudel... the part of the article you quoted says (paraphrased) "coulda formed RNA", not actually that it did occur this way. I'm atheist so you know where I stand.

They did it in the lab. It's very hard to say that this is the exact way it would have happened millions of years ago. The importance is showing that it is possible.

Quote:
The team took a different approach, starting with a common precursor molecule that had a bit of the sugar and the base. “Basically, we took half a base, added that to half a sugar, added the other piece of base, and so on,” Sutherland says. “The key turned out to be the order that the ingredients are added and the way you put them together — like making a soufflé.”
