Here’s how the article concludes:
By showing that it’s possible for tRNA to discriminate between molecules, and that the links can work without “help,” Carter thinks he’s found a way for the information storage of chemical structures like tRNA to have arisen — a crucial piece of passing on genetic traits. Combined with the work on amino acids and temperature, it offers insight into how early life might have evolved.
This work still doesn’t answer the ultimate question of how life began, but it does show a mechanism for the appearance of the genetic codes that pass on inherited traits, which got evolution rolling.
Thank you ... that summarizes very well ....... for me.
Evolution ping!
In the beginning, God....
You make a good/essential point for indicating the lack of proof or substantiation of ‘life’. Any one with adequate science knowledge can make a scenario for beginning of ‘life’. However, this article does not explain/define life any more than the work done at the large European atom smasher.
