摘要：

Synthesizing oligopeptides from glycine and alanine in a flow reactor, which stimulates constant hydrothermal circulation of seawater through hot vents on the primitive Earth, demonstrated that an exponential growth of the products is possible. The initial rapid growth of the product is a consequence of using the products formed in one cycle as the starting materials for the cycle of synthesis.
