polysaccharides


microbial evolution - correct answer ✔little oxygen in early atmosphere--

oxygen--> complex eukarya


Stanley Miller - correct answer ✔1950s experiment; formed organic materials
from primordial soup; boiling flask (heat of early ocean), electrical sparks
(lightning)


ribozymes - correct answer ✔discovered by Thomas Cech (1981); RNA
molecules that form peptide bonds; catalyze reactions; information storage;
able to do cellular work and replicate itself


micelle - correct answer ✔single lipid layer that formed around ribozymes;
early membrane


endosymbiotic theory - correct answer ✔primitive prokaryotic microbes
ingested other microbes, starting a symbiotic relationship, forming first basic
eukaryotes; mitochondria and chloroplasts


strain - correct answer ✔consists of descendants of a single, pure microbial
culture
