Chapter 25.2, Problem 1SB
Summary Introduction
To review:
The properties of alkaline vents that suggest that the evolution of protocells may be evolved in similar environments.
Introduction:
The evolution led to the development of newer structures and functions of species. These species adapted to a suitable environment that helped them to develop specialized features. A protocell is a spherical structure of lipids that played a crucial role in originating life.
