The three-dimensional compositions have more silicon in comparison to those composed of independent tetrahedra.  

The silicate minerals refer to the most general of Earth's minerals and involve feldspar, quartz, mica, pyroxene, amphibole, and olivine. On the other hand, the silica tetrahedra composed of oxygen and silicon, produce sheets, chains, and frameworks, and bonds with other cations to produce silicate minerals.

Answer:

More

Explanation:

This question refers to a group of minerals known as silicates. Silicates are minerals that contain silicon and oxygen in some proportion. These are the most common minerals in both the Earth's crust and mantle, making up 95% of the crust and 97% of the mantle. Although silicates often have very similar chemical formulas, they polymerize to form a variety of structures. Three-dimensional structures have more silicon than those composed of independent tetrahedra.

According to biochemist sidney fox, once amino acids formed in the oceans, they may have collected in small pools to form small
Blizzard [7]

Formed tiny polypeptides known as Proteinoids when they gathered in little pools.

<h3>What is a polypeptide and how does it work?</h3>

Polypeptides. By joining many amino acids together, polypeptides contribute to the creation of proteins. When two or more polypeptides are joined together to form a protein, the resulting structure is unique to that protein.

<h3>What conclusions did Sidney Fox's experiment reach?</h3>

In the 1950s, Sidney Fox demonstrated that when amino acids were splashed in hot, dry circumstances, they immediately polymerized into proteins. Other studies that used cyanide, clays, and heat to cause the polymerization of amino acids into proteins were effective.
