Solution:
The conditions on earth were high temperature, volcanic storms, reducing atmosphere containing CH4, NH3, etc. In 1953, S.L. Miller, an American scientist, created similar conditions on a laboratory scale. He created electric discharge in a closed flask containing CH4, H2, NH3 and water vapour at 800°C. He observed the formation of amino acids.
