Life IS INDEED An RNA World
It Has Always Been And Still Is An RNA World
Genomes Are RNAs-Made Patterns-Manuals
"Repeats protect DNA"
"More On Evolution In The Still RNA World"
Fitting together the pieces of the "still an RNA world" puzzle ?
- Rational probability and possibility that the initial, independent pre-biometabolism direct sunlight-fueled genes (life) were RNAs, and that earliest genomes were RNA genomes. The RNA genes evolved their DNA-images as continuously updated operational worklogs patterns-manuals libraries, and celled and genomed them. They most probably synthesized (and nucleusized) their DNA manuals as their works memory cores, work functional organs, DNA being environmentally stabler than RNA, than themselves. The genomes are functional organs, just as the outer cell membranes are functional organs, of their resident genes.
- Rational possibility that ALL RNAs represent the original archae-genes that since their (life) genesis have been and still are the primary actors, assessors, messengers, operators of all life processes.
- Rational possibility that the RNAs are the environmental feedback communicators to, and modifiers of, the genomes, that the RNAs are the effectors of the desirable biased genes expressions modifications, of enhanced energy constraining for survival.
