In the origin of life, microspheres are most primitive protobiont, which have a membrane of
- Lipids and proteins
- Lipids
- Carbohydrates
- fats
The correct answer is: Lipids and proteins
The covering membrane can be of the lipid bilayer if the mixture contains lipids and corresponding to cell membrane. Sydney Fox (1950) heated a dry mixture of amino acids to
. It formed proteins or polypeptides. The latter were cooled in water. It produced protenoid microspheres of 
diameter.
