Molecules Chemical Experiments Shown Form Complex Organic Inorganic

Chemical experiments have shown that complex organic molecules can form from inorganic molecules in the absence of life, such as amino acids and nucleotides in the early atmosphere.

Experimentos químicos demonstraram que é possível formar moléculas orgânicas complexas a partir de moléculas inorgânicas sem a presença de vida, como aminoácidos e nucleotídeos na atmosfera primitiva.
