kaplan question

did not include phosphorus??
think about this, phosphorus is the building block for energy (ATP), the primitive earth enviornment prob did not have phosphorous, but it did have ammonia, sulfur, water, methanol, methane, CO2...it did not have O2
Therefore the early earth enviornment was very reducing, therefore it did not have Oxygen which oxidizes

This was a DAT question, (took in May 2008) except the answers they had were :
Nitrogen, Phosphorus, Carbon, Water, Sulfur
I got frapped with the ethics passage as well.

Ya it was, Only elements were C N H and very little O.
P wasn't one of the components of the primordial soup.
so which one would you pick between P & S? I thought they both were absent.
according to the miller experiment C, N, O, H were present. some text books include S too.
I would say phosphorous was not in the early earth. My problem is that this experiment was found to be incorrect...
what?? they were wrong? I thought there experiment was proved to be correct...

I dunno, its just controversial b/c they are assumptions. If the experiment was correct or if it has proven to be incorrect doesnt really matter. In terms of the DAT, C,N,O,H, and S were in the "early atmosphere."
Man I cant wait to get this thing over with in a few days! Good Luck
Tell me about it 🙄
I am damn excited to start my summer finally in 4 days
GL to you too!
