Which of the following scientists is credited with the idea that early life formed through a series of chemical reactions that make simple compounds more complex?

Stanley Miller is the scientist that is credited with the idea that early life formed through a successions of chemical reactions that make simple compounds more complex. He made a breakthrough of experiments in the origin of life by representing that a wide range of vital organic compounds can be produced by fairly simple chemical processes from inorganic substances. Although he worked with Urey on this experiment, Miller is far more well-known and credited for the discovery.

explanation:

for  example, forests have higher evapotranspiration than other ecosystems,  such  as grasslands, because of their deeper roots and greater leaf area. thus forests have a net moistening effect on the atmosphere and become a moisture source for downwind ecosystems.
