Chemical Analysis II by Derek Cantrell (Draft I) Studies in biology and chemistry posit that DNA/ RNA reproduced on the ocean’s surface in ancient times, by using the Sun’s Ultraviolet light, or thermal energy, through a process call Ultraviolet and Temperature Assisted Reproduction (UVTAR). The oldest living entities on Earth are ancient bacteria called Archaea that emerge from “Smokers,” which are tunnels that connect the ocean floor to the Earth’s magma layer. These bacteria are the current origin of the food chain and currently host a variety of life. These bacteria are also ultra-versatile and withstand conditions previously believed to be impossible. The “PNA World Hypothesis” claims that PNA, which are predecessors to DNA/ RNA, could have survived on the ocean’s surface using UVTAR to eventually form RNA. The PNA combined with polymers in our ancient oceans by using the thermal energy of the Sun’s UV rays. When the Sun set, the RNA would begin to deteriorate, but with the following sunrise, would more readily converge with the necessary polymers to reform its complete RNA structure. Fire does reproduce itself, but it does not require RNA/ DNA. Instead the thermal energy produced by fire, heats unused fuel to its combustible temperature, thus producing more fire. While science does not currently consider this as reproduction, it could be argued that the process is very similar to PNA and other lifeforms using thermal energy to produce clones of itself.
Thermites are a group of Archaea bacteria that exist in temperatures exceeding 250 degrees F. If life origins take us closer to Earth magma, the further we study and we find more and more predecessors of DNA/ RNA; perhaps we should consider DNA/ RNA an outdated definitive of life. It should also be considered that if life origins continue to engage thermal energy, we should consider thermal energy as the original requirement for life. This would offer credibility to life existing in the magma layer of our planet. If life evolved from the magma layer and all life forms are chemical processes and all life forms require an energy source; by using an Occam’s Razor method, we can fathom the idea of life deriving from a fire-based chemical reaction. This would mean the potential for life, as well as life itself, could very well be located anywhere thermal energy thrives or reaches, including our Sun, the stars, planets, etc. Hypothesis: Fire evolved into ancient bacteria found in Smokers, through thermal energy from magma bonding to simple sugars, forming PNA structures, which in turn formed RNA (the predecessor to DNA).
