How are self-replicating molecules in the RNA world hypothesis essential to how evolutionists believe life began on Earth?

Question

aaronq · Answer

"The RNA world hypothesis proposes that a world filled with life based on ribonucleic acid (RNA) predates the current world of life based on deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and protein. RNA, which can both store information like DNA and act as an enzyme like proteins, may have supported cellular or pre-cellular life. Some hypotheses as to the origin of life present RNA-based catalysis and information storage as the first step in the evolution of cellular life. The RNA world is proposed to have evolved into the DNA and protein world of today. DNA, through its greater chemical stability, took over the role of data storage while protein, which is more flexible in catalysis through the great variety of amino acids, became the specialized catalytic molecules. The RNA world hypothesis suggests that RNA in modern cells, in particular rRNA (RNA in the ribosome which catalyzes protein production), is an evolutionary remnant of the RNA world." https://www.princeton.edu/~achaney/tmve/wiki100k/docs/RNA_world_hypothesis.html In short, RNA molecules would have had to be the precursors to other more stable polymers.

what would be a short answer of that

it's plagiarism when you use writing that you didn't write yourself.
