Which of these statements best describes how living things appeared on earth? viruses evolved into plants by spontaneous processes. reproducing molecules evolved into living molecules by chemical processes. non-living molecules were transformed into living molecules by biological processes. atmospheric gases were transformed into living organisms by spontaneous processes.

Reproducing molecules evolved into living molecules by chemical processes.

In 1952, Stanley Miller and Harold Urey conducted an experiment to observe how complex organic molecules might have developed on early earth. They believed that the early earth atmosphere would be composed of methane, ammonia, water vapor and hydrogen gas.  They sealed these gases in an air tight container. Later, they exposed the gases with an electric spark for a week. They found that a reddish brown substance covered the wall of the container from inside. This brownish substances consisted of amino acids.  The amino acid is the basic biological unit found in all living organisms. The early earth atmosphere was reducing and warm, this condition could be responsible for generation of amino acids which are reproducing molecules formed by chemical processes occurring on early earth.

the answer is b)3/8x+1

an organism's phenotype is the  form of a trait  that it  displays. for  flowercolor, a pea  plant  can  display  a phenotype of purple or white flowers. an organism's  genotype  is the alleles of a gene it contains. based on his data, mendel concluded that a phenotype can be  determined  by more than one  genotype.
