Thermodynamic ontogeny: The emergence of persistence and complexity in pre-genetic chemical systems

Puntos clave

• Emergence of complexity is evident in pre-genetic chemical systems, highlighting thermodynamic principles.
• This analysis focuses on how ontogeny contributes to persistence within these systems, observed across varying conditions.
• Assessment of chemical interactions within a thermodynamic framework illustrates foundational mechanisms at play.
• Understanding these principles may enable deeper insights into the origins of life and molecular evolution.
