摘要：

The most fundamental divide in biology is that between heterotrophic and autotrophic ways of life. Two of the leading proponents of a heterotrophic origin of life (''hetero-origin'') in a prebiotic broth, C. de Duve and S.L. Miller, have criticized my theory of a pyrite-pulled chemo-autotrophic origin of life (''auto-origin'') [De Duve, C. and Miller, S.L. (1991) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 88, 10014-10017]. This criticism is now answered.
