The correct answer is - lagoon.

When rivers and streams that have lower water volume throughout the whole year come in touch with the ocean, under the influence of the ocean's wave and ocean currents along the coast, sandbars and barrier islands start to form around the estuary. As they form and little by little grow in size, they manage to create a closed space with calm shallow water between the estuary itself and the ocean, thus creating a lagoon.

svetlana [45]

Answer:

2. Methane (CH4)

3. Simulate

4. Sparkling device

5. Lightning storm

6. brown broth rich in amino acids

7. Reducing

8. spontaneous organic compound

9. Amino acids.

Explanation:

Miller and Urey performed experiments to support the "Alexander Oparin's and J. B. S. Haldane's" hypothesis. In their experiment, they combined "Methane (CH4)," ammonia, hydrogen gas, and water in a closed system and "Simulate" it to mimic conditions on early Earth. After stimulating the system with a "Sparkling device" to mimic "Lightning Storm, " they discovered that "brown broth rich in amino acids" was produced. This suggests that early Earth had a "Reducing" atmosphere, leading to redox reactions that catalyzed the "spontaneous organic compound" synthesis of organic monomers such as "Amino acids."
