Answer: Stanley Miller and Herold in 1950, performed an experiment, and they came up with a result that can be formed simultaneously by simulating the condition of the earth's early atmosphere using a designed apparatus which were used to held a mixture of gases similar to those found in earth's early atmosphere dispersing it on a pool of water, which represent earth's early ocean. Electrodes delivered an electric current, simulating lightning, into the gas-filled chamber. After allowing the experiment to run for one week, the contents of the liquid pool were analysed. It was found that several organic amino acids had formed spontaneously from inorganic raw materials. And these molecules collected together in the pool of water to form coacervate.
It's importance for an AP Biology Reader is that it helps with the knowledge that organic molecules needed for life could be formed from inorganic components.
The Miller and Urey experiment is a well-known classic experiment in which hypothetical conditions of the early Earth's evolution were simulated to test the possibility of chemical evolution. In fact, this was an experimental test of the hypothesis previously expressed by Alexander Oparin and John Haldane that the conditions that existed on primitive Earth promoted chemical reactions that could lead to the synthesis of organic molecules from inorganic ones. It was held in 1953 by Stanley Miller and Harold Urey. The apparatus designed for the experiment included a mixture of gases corresponding to the notion of the composition of the atmosphere of the early Earth in the 1950s, and electric discharges passing through it (simulating lightning strikes on the ground). The Miller and Urey experiment is considered one of the most important experiments in the study of the origin of life on Earth.
Spatialization (spatialisation) can refer to the spatial forms that social activities and material things, phenomena or processes take on. This term related to geography, sociology, urban planning and cultural studies. Generally the term refers to an overall sense of social space typical of a time, place or culture.
Glucose, a small polar solute, uses a membrane transporter (a protein carrier) to cross the plasma membrane via facilitated diffusion. In simple diffusion, small nonpolar and lipid-soluble substances (including gases) diffuse directly through the lipid bilayer.
