Suppose that Miller repeated his chemical evolution experiment,but without a source of electrical sparks.What would be the purpose?
A)to test if kinetic energy is required for chemical evolution
B)to test the hypothesis that reduced molecules are required for chemical evolution
C)to test the hypothesis that both reduced molecules and kinetic energy are required for chemical evolution
D)to make sure that the glassware had not been contaminated and that any new molecules found were actually produced by chemical evolution

Kinetic energy is required to break apart the bonds of the starting materials in order to form new molecules. Without a source of electrical sparks, there would be no energy to drive the reaction and no new molecules would be formed.
