Question : Haldane described 'Hot dilute soup' in his theory. Describe how this soup led to formation of some important molecules.

Answer»

SOLUTION :(1) The primitive sea CONTAINING molecules of organic SUBSTANCES without free oxygen was. described as 'hot dilute soup or primitive broth' by Haldane. He proposed the theory of chemical EVOLUTION.
(2) According to this theory, the chemical evolution took place in following steps:
(a) Origin of earth and its primitive atmosphere.
(b) Formation of ammonia, water and methane. These molecules dissolved in rain water and formed the seas.
(c) Then synthesis of simple organic compounds took place, followed by
(d) formation of complex organic compounds such as nucleic acids.
(3) The early molecules underwent chemical reactions such as condensation, POLYMERIZATION, oxidation and reduction.
(4) The biologically important molecules such as monosaccharides, amino acids, purine, pyrimidine, fatty acids and glycerol were formed due to these reactions, utilizing the sources of energy on the primitive earth.
(5) Since oxygen was lacking, there was no degradation. Enzymes were also absent and hence there was formation of complex molecules in the hot diluts soup.
(6) This further led to the formation of precells or protobiont. These aggregates were called coacervates by Oparin. This further gave rise to first cells on the earth.

Question : Had Darwin been aware of Mendel's work, would he been able to explain the origin of variations. Discuss.

Answer»

Solution :Even though Mendel (Commonly called as Father of Genetics) had talked of INHERITABLE .factors. influencing phenotype Darwin either ignored these observations or kept silence.
Darwin would have been able to explain the origin of variations.
He asserted that variations, which are heritable and which make resource utilisation better for few (adapted to habitat better) will enable only those to REPRODUCE and leave more PROGENY.
Though Darwinism EXPLAINS survival of the fittest but does not explain mode of arrival of the fittest.
So he did not explained any particulate substance for INHERITANCE of continuous useful variations from one generation to the next.
But Mendel explained inheritance of characters is particulate an ever character is controlled by a pair factors (now called as Alleles).
So if Darwin was aware of Mendelism he could have been able to explain the origin of variations. And there inheritance.
