Microbial life. DNA and/or RNA
What code? 20, approximately 3.7 billion years
About 600 copies of each triplet and 30 copies of each quadruplet.
It is thought to be the ocean.
Water protected it
Mostly nitrogen, hydrogen, water vapor, and carbon dioxide with lesser amounts of other gases
Clumped together
The sun
Possibly
Nitrogenase can be traced back to early bacteria
Your evidence for this is what.
Life has a way
Did it have one or did it rely on water?
Again, did it have one?
Again, did it have one?
Getting bored
Binary fission
Sunlight
Did it need to?
Did it need to?
irreducible complexity has been shown to be nonsense by science and by courts of law.

Considering you are going to refute all that with no evidence I'm giving up here as a waste of my time.

Finally an attempt.
To the answer to "What was the first living thing made of? Was it DNA? Was it RNA? Was it just proteins? Was it some mix?"
You gave the absurd answer of "Microbial life. DNA and/or RNA"
first, and/or is not an answer.
DNA is an absurdity because that first living creature is impossible, way too advanced. RNA is also an absurdity, because it too is way too advanced. You did nit say proteins, so you do not understand basic biology. It will not survive without proteins. And with just RNA it will never make it to DNA, that is absurd. It is yet another miracle.
To the question, "What was its code? How many amino acids did it have? When did it come into being?"
That is not even an answer. Both RNA and/or DNA use a code. As to 3.7 billion year ago, you have yet to prove that there was anything older than about 6000 years. And according to the young faint sun paradox, the earth was a frozen snowball.
As to the answer to the question, "How many kinds of proteins did it have? How many of each?"
You said, "About 600 copies of each triplet and 30 copies of each quadruplet", you never answered what kind of proteins, which you missed in the first question. Triplet and quadruplet do not count as the question wanted an actual kind. And of course this first made up creature will not survive or have offspring.
As to the answer to the question, "
Where did it come into being? In space? In the atmosphere? In the ocean? In a tide pool?
In clay or mud? What protected it from UV rays? What was the composition of the atmosphere at that time?"
You said,
It is
thought to be the ocean.
Water protected it
Mostly nitrogen, hydrogen, water vapor, and carbon dioxide with lesser amounts of other gases "
Looking for answers and you just have a thought. It would never have even assembled in the ocean beaus the water would dissipate it and not enough concentration of amino acids. Water destroys it, it does not protect it.
As to the answer to the question, "If it was in water, how did the amino acids keep from being dissipated by the water?"
You said, "Clumped together". But they do nit clump together, they are dispersed.
As to the answer to the question, "What was the energy source for these reactions."
You said, "Sunlight". But you said it was in the ocean. Sunlight is attenuated in water the deeper the depth. Also, remember that snowball earth is frozen. Also what would turn the sunlight into useable chemical energy. Photosynthesis needs a bit more than this fake first creature.
As to the answer to the question, "Where there any enzymes in it?"
You said, "Possibly"/ That is not an answer.
As to the answer to the question, "Which ones?"
You said, "Nitrogenase can be traced back to early bacteria". Going to need more enzymes for that. This first living creature is fiction. And just because it is in early bacteria (never proved early) does not mean it was in the first living creature. You are using circular reasoning twice just in that one phrase.
As to the answer to the question, "Surely the primitive thing could not last more than a minute much less than many years."
You said, "Your evidence for this is what." I already gave the answer. The more primitive the first fictional living creature, the more surely it will die because it has no protection, no food source, no way to remove waste, and no way to reproduce.
As to the answer to the question, "How did it survive?"
You said, "Life has a way". Not an answer.
As to the rest of your answers, they are not answers at all or they are just answers that are refuted.
