2 THINGS THAT ENDED THE DEBATE
PEOPLE WERE WRONG IN 1668
In 1668 Francesco Redi
Did an experiment using flies and raw meat
He proved that the flies didn't in fact spontaneously generate, they were born from other flies. Aka life produces life.
Almost 200 years later in 1864 Louis Pasteur did an experiment using a flash and (boiled) broth.
He proved that the heat causes organisms to die and when tilted doesn't allow more to form
By the late 1900's scientists were working with these 2 theories proving spontaneous generation obsolete.
