Output the questions with the question on the first line, the alternative answers on the following 4 lines. Prefix the correct answer with a *. Suffix the correct answer with ::: and an explanation for why this was the correct answer. Suffix the incorrect answers with ::: and an explanation for why this was the incorrect answer. Separate each question with an empty line. Do not add any labels, formatting or numbering. Do not assign letters to the alternatives.

A2.1

• What plausible hypothesis could account for the origin of life?
• What intermediate stages could there have been between non-living matter and the first living cells?

A2.1.1—Conditions on early Earth and the pre-biotic formation of carbon compounds

Include the lack of free oxygen and therefore ozone, higher concentrations of carbon dioxide and  methane, resulting in higher temperatures and ultraviolet light penetration. The conditions may have  caused a variety of carbon compounds to form spontaneously by chemical processes that do not now  occur.

A2.1.2—Cells as the smallest units of self-sustaining life

Discuss the differences between something that is living and something that is non-living. Include reasons  that viruses are considered to be non-living.

A2.1.3—Challenge of explaining the spontaneous origin of cells

Cells are highly complex structures that can currently only be produced by division of pre-existing cells.  Students should be aware that catalysis, self-replication of molecules, self-assembly and the emergence of  compartmentalization were necessary requirements for the evolution of the first cells. NOS: Students should appreciate that claims in science, including hypotheses and theories, must be  testable. In some cases, scientists have to struggle with hypotheses that are difficult to test. In this case the  exact conditions on pre-biotic Earth cannot be replicated and the first protocells did not fossilize.

A2.1.4—Evidence for the origin of carbon compounds

Evaluate the Miller–Urey experiment.

A2.1.5—Spontaneous formation of vesicles by coalescence of fatty acids into spherical bilayers

Formation of a membrane-bound compartment is needed to allow internal chemistry to become different  from that outside the compartment.

A2.1.6—RNA as a presumed first genetic material

RNA can be replicated and has some catalytic activity so it may have acted initially as both the genetic  material and the enzymes of the earliest cells. Ribozymes in the ribosome are still used to catalyse peptide  bond formation during protein synthesis.

A2.1.7—Evidence for a last universal common ancestor

Include the universal genetic code and shared genes across all organisms. Include the likelihood of other  forms of life having evolved but becoming extinct due to competition from the last universal common  ancestor (LUCA) and descendants of LUCA.

A2.1.8—Approaches used to estimate dates of the first living cells and the last universal common ancestor

Students should develop an appreciation of the immense length of time over which life has been evolving  on Earth.

A2.1.9—Evidence for the evolution of the last universal common ancestor in the vicinity of hydrothermal  vents Include fossilized evidence of life from ancient seafloor hydrothermal vent precipitates and evidence of  conserved sequences from genomic analysis.
