Non Carbon Based Life at Life

Non Carbon Based Life. Scientists have speculated about the pros and cons of using atoms other than carbon to form the molecular structures necessary for life, but no one has proposed a theory employing such atoms to form all the necessary structures. Without carbon, there would have been no dna, proteins, lipids, sugar, fat, muscle tissue or anything else that makes up the stuff of life.

Without carbon, there would have been no dna, proteins, lipids, sugar, fat, muscle tissue or anything else that makes up the stuff of life. What the researchers found was that the microbes could use arsenic in lieu of most, but not all phosphorus. In my opinion it may be possible, but the probability borders on 0%.

Are there any non carbon based lifeforms? However, there are no known natural instances of life on earth combining silicon and carbon together into molecules. It is just too difficult for silicon based molecules to serve as whats needed for complex life. In my opinion it may be possible, but the probability borders on 0%.
