[Could life evolve by random mutations?].

Biofizika - 1 Jan 2000

Melkikh A V

Abstract excerpt

The problem of the rate and mechanisms of evolution was considered. It was shown that organisms could not be formed by random mutations during real times of about one million years. It was concluded that deterministic models are necessary for the description of evolution.
