Why was this significant evidence for abiotic origin of life? a. RNA molecules could pass on information to their "daughters." b. RNA molecules were not able to replicate. c. RNA is a stable repository. d. RNA would be used up by protocells.

a. RNA molecules could pass on information to their "daughters."

Explanation:

In 2013, researchers constructed a vesicle with replicated RNA, they observed that RNA molecules could pass on information to their "daughters" because it showed that

1. RNA is a very reliable molecule for the transfer of genetic and hereditary molecules.

2. RNA came first before DNA was ever observed.

3. RNA are very reactive molecules.

This was a significant evidence of abiotic origin of life.
