Origin of life -- chemical evolution
Sign in to track this film in your collection or want list.
Describes evidence supporting the evolution of life in the primordial sea, and traces the evolution of life from the molecular level to the present., Examines experiments studying chemical evolution as it relates to the origin of life and describes evidence of evolution found in the primordial sea. Illustrates the evolutionary process with an experiment in which hydrogen, methane gas, ammonia, and water are charged with radiant energy to produce amino acids and other organic compounds. Studies the contributions of A. I. Opaim, a Russian biochemist, Dr. Stanley Miller, developer of an amino acid analyzer, and Dr. Cyril Ponnamperuma, using the analytical apparatus at NASA's Ames Research Center.
