Solution

The correct option is C Marine water
We know that the environment we live in is made up of 2 components, namely living (biotic) and non-living (abiotic). Different theories were proposed to study the origin of the wife. But they lead to the conclusion that life had originated on earth in seawater and marine organisms were one of the first to emerge. In earth's early atmosphere, there was no ozone layer, thus the UV rays of the sun could directly reach the earth. As living organisms cannot survive UV radiation directly, many scientists believed that life originated in aquatic habitats. Apart from this, different requirements of these early organisms were also fulfilled in the deep-sea vents.
Thus, option C 'Marine Water' is the correct option.
