The RNA World theory states that RNA preceded DNA as the primary information storing molecule and life on early earth consisted entirely of RNA molecules Which of the following provides the most direct support for this theory A B C D RNA molecules consist of only four nucleotides making their synthesis and replication relatively simple RNA molecules do not usually form a complementary double helix and therefore require less biomolecular resources to synthesize The chemical versatility of RNA molecules allows them to store information as well as to fold into different functional shapes The ribose sugar on the RNA nucleotide contains a hydroxyl group that increases its chemical stability
