The correct answer is "Because it never lived ".

The reason why we consider water as abiotic because it never had life. We term a molecule/compound as biotic only when it is resulted from a living thing. Water has always existed in nature even when there was no life on this earth. So, it simply means that it didn't result from living beings. Water is considered as the non living part of the environment. Also, second option is partially correct because like begets like. But, the first living cell was also evolved from non living components of earth which is an exception to the second statement. So, the most appropriate answer to this question is option 4th "it never lived".

arsen [322]

The correct answer is: a. A site in DNA that recruits the RNA Polymerase

Promoters are regions of DNA molecule located near the transcription start codons of genes, usually upstream on the DNA with the function to initiate DNA transcription. Promoters contain specific DNA sequences (e.g. TATA boxes) that are binding sites for the enzyme RNA polymerase and transcription factors that recruit RNA polymerase. Transcription factors can regulate gene expression and act as activators or repressors depending on sequences that attach to specific promoters.
