    1. The document summarizes experiments conducted by Redi, Spallanzi, and Pasteur regarding the theory of spontaneous generation. 2. Redi showed that flies lay eggs on exposed meat, not in covered containers, disproving the idea that maggots arose spontaneously. 3. Spallanzi found broth sealed from air remained clear, showing microbes need air to grow. Pasteur later used a flask design preventing microbes from entering, keeping broth clear until exposed to air, further supporting biogenesis over abiogenesis.

    ACTIVITY 1

    1. Make a concept map of the different groups of living things (various kingdoms) and give typical example of each (common name with scientific name).

    KINGDOMS OF LIVING THINGS

    It categorizes living things based on their lineage and organizes


    them based on their fundamental and common features that
    have evolved over time.

    It exhibits It hails from the kingdom It is a heterotrophic,
    prokaryotic/pathogenic monera and can live in eukaryotic creature that animals, and fungi. They are includes autotrophic, fundamental groups of

    2. Compare and contrast the works done by Spallanzani, Pasteur, and Redi.

    • Theory of spontaneous generation, this theory was a hypothetical mechanism and archaic scientific hypothesis that explains how living beings arise from nonliving
    organisms/subjects.

    Aristotle first articulated the said theory, and over the years, Lazzaro Spallani, Francesco Redi, and Louis Pauster exerted experiments to deliberate more on the theory.
    However, each of them has different takeaways to elaborate on this concept.

    FRANCESCO REDI LAZZARO SPALLANI LOUIS PASTEUR

    Francesco Redi experimented with maggots Lazzaro Spallanzani prepared broths filled with Louis Pasteur disproved the theory. He carried
    on rotting meat in 1668. He conducted an animal and plant components in 1768. He left one out another broth experiment in which he boiled
    experiment in which beef slices were put in six jar closed and the other open to the air. meat broth in swan flasks with twisted necks. The
    different containers. flask was designed in a way that it enabled air to

    might be avoided. There were no maggots found intact, the soup stayed clear for an extended period
    in the closed containers. However, maggots of time. The entrance of bacteria into the broth
    were found in the open container. caused the flask to become hazy

    Finally, flies laid their eggs on the exposed


    piece of meat, and the maggots were their
    offspring that developed on flesh.

    This ruled out the presence of some vital


    components in once-living organisms as well as
    the requirement of new air to produce life.
    3. How biogenesis cemented its law on the perpetuation of bacteria contradicting the abiogenesis? 2 paragraphs, with 5 sentences in each paragraph.

    • Biogenesis is the creation of new living things coming from other living things. While abiogenesis is the opposite, wherein life is made from non-living things; this process was
    also called as spontaneous generation. A theory about this was spearheaded first by Aristotle wherein he believed that every living being is made up of a compound of matter and
    form. For example, rotting meat would transform directly into flies and more. However, this concept was disproved by Francesco Redi, Lazzaro Spallani, and Loius Pasteur through
    their various experiment in which they proved that living things arise from pre-existing/other living things.

    Francesco Redi discovered that rotting meat flesh would transform directly into new offspring of maggots after flies lay their eggs on the exposed piece of meat and air. While
    Lazzaro Spallani realized that microbes grow within the flask that is exposed to air. On the other hand, Louis Pasteur created a swan neck-shaped flask that prevents bacteria and
    other particles from entering aside from the atmosphere. However, he observed that there were no organisms growing from the flask, he then removed the swan neck and it allowed
    the bacteria to enter which resulted in the growth and multiplication of microbes after several hours and the development of haze. Has also been determined that microbes live in
    the air that contributes to the growth of other living organisms and bacteria
