S and N in organic carbon source are transformed into H 2 S and NH 4 + through desulfurylation and deamination, respectively. [41] [40] Heterotrophs also allow for dephosphorylation as part of decomposition. [40] The conversion of N and S from organic form to inorganic form is a critical part of the nitrogen and sulfur cycle.

A rain of material from comets could have brought such complex organic molecules to Earth. [102] [103] [60] It is estimated that during the Late Heavy Bombardment, meteorites may have delivered up to five million tons of organic prebiotic elements to Earth per year.
