Hypotheses for Life Origin on Earth, Comparison and Validation

Da Yong Lu, Ting Ren Lu, Hong Ying Wu, Nagendra Sastry Yarla

Abstract


Life origin on Earth is an interesting topic all over world. RNA world, extraterritorial living-form landing, volcanic eruptions, cooperative biological origin hypothesis are major hypotheses so far. A great number of physics, chemical, biological and ecological factors are shared in this Editorial. Advantages and limitations of different aspects of life-origin hypotheses are overall highlighted. KEYWORDS Human evolution, life-origin, RNA-world, systems biology, genetic information system, environmental ecology,
