How did the discovery of ribozymes assist in creating a plausible model for the prebiotic origin of life?

Biology
1 answer:
aleksley [76]3 years ago
3 0
Ribozymes are biochemically too complex to have ever produced themselves naturalistically. They are an intermediate cellular functioning assembly that cannot survive on its own and they are too restrictive in function to enable metabolism and reproduction at the level of criticality to be considered plausible for life.

Their simplicity relative to RNA and DNA make them an attractive possibility, but they are not strategic enough, robust enough or in any producible using naturalistic processes.

Explain the advantages to a plant of having its cell membranes surrounded by cell walls
QveST [7]
Plant cell walls are rigid membranes on the outermost part of the cell. The cell wall provides a structured shape for the cell, helping the cell retain its form and shape. The cell wall also controls the rate of replication, allowing plant cells to replicate at a much slower rate than animal cells.
