Comments
Brian, your pod cast guest mentions that the Miller experiment created amino acids and proteins. Please be candid and straight forward: Were there any true amino acids/proteins created in this experiment or just the precursors to these molecules? sp
Yes, more than 20 amino acids were produced in the original experiment. Similar experiments have produced amino acids and proteins.
