If the mysteries of life are finally revealed, how will this change your lifestyle?
The new finding is a significant breakthrough in terms of Darwinism because the researchers experimented with a unique RNA replication system, which leads to a self-perpetuating process of continuous change based on mutations and natural selection.
The experiment included the incubation of RNA replicase molecules in droplets of water encased in oil at 98.6 °F for five hours at a time. And then the nutrients were added to be mixed before being put into an incubator for another five hours. This process was repeated up to 240 rounds. The result of this sequence analysis was that two RNA lineages branched into multiple sublineages of host and parasitic RNAs.
“Honestly, we initially doubted that such diverse RNAs could evolve and coexist,” commented Ryo Mizuuchi, corresponding author of the study. “In evolutionary biology, the ‘competitive exclusion principle’ states that more than one species cannot coexist if they are competing for the same resources. This means that the molecules must establish a way to use different resources one after another for sustained diversification.
The study provides us with further insight into the first stages of evolution and a possible evolutionary route. It has also been proved that RNA can evolve and lead to complex life. The researchers intend to carry out additional research to learn more about how RNA may have paved the way for biological systems. “The results could be a clue to solving the ultimate question that human beings have been asking for thousands of years — what are the origins of life?” Mizuuchi said.
