True or False One evolutionary hypothesis, taught in most public schools, states that "rocky structures had small compartments where basic organic molecules could have been held together in a small space. Once together, these molecules could have formed the first cells."

There have been several theories of the origin of life, such as the following ones:

• Spontaneous generation,: life arose from decaying organic substances.

,

• Panspermia,: where life was brought to Earth by a meteorite from outer space.

,

• Primordial soup,: the first cell formed from organic molecules found in primitive oceans.

However, none of them involved small compartments in rocks, so the statement is false.
