They're somewhat the same thing, since both are the effect of biochemistry in action, but one is not required for the other.
Technically, Xenu could have dropped a turd out of his spacecraft's lavatory on the way past the early earth, and 4+ billion years later, those turd-bacteria became everything we see on earth. It still begs the question of how life first emerged to make Xenu, but as far as evolution goes, it doesn't matter if life arrived here or formed here; we just have no reason to think it didn't form here, based on what we already know of the formation of aqueous lipid layers into protocells, what we already know about interstellar ices forming precursor molecules to what's in earth's organic chemistry set, and what we know about the conditions of the early earth.
how did the first replicator molecule know how to do Abiogenesis or how to mutate ? did it just decide to do it on their own what do you think? replicator molecules were inclined to do that for some reason and did it for some reason
Imagine there's no heaven It's easy if you try No hell below us Above us only sky Imagine all the people Living for today
Imagine there's no countries It isn't hard to do Nothing to kill or die for And no religion too Imagine all the people Living life in peace You may say I'm a dreamer But I'm not the only one I hope someday you will join us And the world will be as one - John Lennon
