It is postulated, with support from kinetic modelling, that a succession of symbioses was the major process of evolution during the early stages of life. The process became less effective with the passage of time, while evolution by the natural selection of variants became more effective. The postulate may contribute usefully to discussions on the evolution of biochemical complexity and the structure of cells.
在动力学模型的支持下，有人推测一系列共生现象是生命早期进化的主要过程。随着时间的推移，这个过程的效率逐渐降低，而通过变体的自然选择进行的进化则变得更加有效。这一推测可能有助于对生物化学复杂性的进化和细胞结构的讨论。
