Protocells are precursors to modern living cells. Despite being non-living matter, protocells exhibit some characteristics of life such as reproduction. However, protocells were unable to inherit traits.
- Protocells are the ancestors of contemporary living cells and are created by the collection of abiotic elements. Despite not being live things, protocells exhibit traits that are similar to those of real cells.
- Structures called protocells are created when abiotic (non-living) elements come together. Despite this, they exhibit some traits that are similar to those of live cells. In essence, protocells are a spherical, endogenously structured, self-organized collection of lipids.
- The protocell, a very simplified and condensed version of a cell, is yet capable of growth, reproduction, and evolution.
- Structures called protocells are created when abiotic (non-living) elements come together. Despite this, they exhibit some traits that are similar to those of live cells. In essence, protocells are spherical collections of lipids that have internalized organization and self-organization.
- The coacervate was the first structure to appear in the primordial world that could be referred to as a protocell. This is a membraneless, spherical microdroplet that can form on its own in weak organic solutions. Coacervates, which resemble the creation of oil droplets in water, are held together by hydrophobic forces.
