Life on Earth probably evolved in the ocean. All of the following evidence supports this statement EXCEPT:

A) the cellular makeup of all living organisms depends on a saline solution to dissolve and transport chemicals.
B) biosynthesis cannot occur without high concentrations of free oxygen, similar to the condition of Earth's early atmosphere and ocean.
C) the basic molecules of life (simple sugars and amino acids) form spontaneously in a solution similar to that of Earth's early ocean.
D) the thermal and chemical characteristics of water allow intricate biochemical reactions to occur, such as those required for biosynthesis.
