Answer: The Miller - Urey experiment is an experiment that was conducted by Stanley Miller and Harold Urey last 1950's. The hypothesis that they had tested and demonstrated was that several organic compounds could be formed by simulating the conditions of Earth's atmosphere.The Miller-Urey experiment provided the first evidence that organic molecules needed for life could be formed from inorganic components. Some scientists support the RNA world hypothesis, which suggests that the first life was self-replicating RNA.
