Clay Absorption Hypothesis.
Storyboard Text
- Wow, this piece of clay is really cool. I can't believe that clay is what helped lead to evolution in holding genetic material.
- Science Rocks!
- Science Rocks!
- Hi there! My mom told me that you were a famous scientist is that true?
- SCIENCE ROCKS!
- Whats that?
- Greetings! I'm Dr. Graham Cairns- Smith and I created the Clay Adsorption hypothesis.
- What? You don't know what the Clay Adsorption Hypothesis is? Ugh, kids these days. Well let me show you!
- Whats polymerize mean?
- To make a polymer. Which is basically a large amount of units together.
- This here is clay. It has a large adsorption capacity and has the ability to concentrate organic chemicals and ability to serve as polymerization templates. Along with that and most importantly helps polymerize amino acids
- Wait! So i'm made of clay!
- No, this just help aid evolution which faded out over time.
- The clay traps RNA and puts it inside vesicles. Once formed, such vesicles could grow by incorporating fatty acids and divide, thus making vesicle replication through cycles of growth and division.
- Thats boring
- No, its SCIENCE!
