Question

What was proposed by Oparin and Haldane on origin of life?

Answer 1

Oparin and Haldane proposed Oparin Haldane hypothesis based on the origin of life. According to this hypothesis, the Earth's atmosphere was extremely reducing during the early stages of development. The atmosphere abundant amount of negative charges. This resulted in reduction reaction by adding electrons to compounds. The life originated by series of reaction of organic compounds resulting in the formation of complex molecules. Hence, organic molecules were synthesized nonbiologically by UV light energy.
