氨基生物ammonia-based life
史莱姆Slime
Amino based life, based on ammonia, establishes corresponding systems for a series of complex compounds. In 1954, a British scientist named Haldane, during a symposium discussing the origin of life, proposed that the solvent used by our human life form, water, could be replaced by liquid ammonia in certain life forms. One of the reasons he proposed is that some of the characteristics of water are similar to ammonia, such as the formation of methanol (CH3OH) based on water, and the formation of methylamine (CH3NH2) based on ammonia. Methanol and methylamine are two similar compounds.
Therefore, amino life is actually proposed in response to our "water based life" using water as a solvent, regardless of whether the life skeleton is carbon (i.e. carbon based life).
氨基生物(ammonia-based life),以氨为基础建立其一系列复杂化合物的对应体系。1954年,一位英国科学家霍尔丹,在一次座谈会上讨论生命起源时,提出被我们人类这种生命形态利用的水这种溶剂,在某些生命形态下可以由液态氨来代替。他提出的理由之一是水的一些特性和氨是类似的,比如,以水为基础可以形成甲醇(CH3OH),而以氨为基础可以形成甲胺(CH3NH2),甲醇和甲胺这两种化合物正是类似物。
因此,氨基生命实际上是对应我们以水为溶剂的“水基生命(water-based life)”而提出的,与生命骨架是否为碳(即是否是碳基生命)无关。
