fracesco redi
set out flasks containing raw meat; they unsealed flask attracted bacteria and bugs, the sealed flask doesn’t attract bacteria or bugs, flask covered with gauze attracts bugs and bacteria on the top of the gauze
spontaneous generation
life could arise from non-living matter
john Needham
-put chicken broth in a flask and sealed it, except microorganism still grew in broth
Lazzaro Spallanzani
repeated Needham’s but drew air out of the flask- nothing grew
louis Pasteur
-neck flask into an “s” shape
- air could enter but dust and microorganisms would get caught in the neck
variables of Pasteur’s experiment
manipulated- access to dust in flask
responding- ability to grow mold
controlled x2- nothing changed (eg. flask shape, flask size)
what did Pasteur’s experiment show?
SPONTONIOUS GENERATION DOES NOT EXSIST
where do microorganisms come from according to Pasteur?
from the air
robert brown
discovered the nucleus of the cell
mj scheidon
observed all plants were made of cells, nucleus LIKELY responsible for development of cell
proposed all plants and animals were made of cells
theodore schwann and schleiden
cell theory states that
- ALL LIVING things are made up of one of more cells and materials produced are by the cells
- ALL life functions take place in cells, aka they are the smallest unit of life
- all cells are produced from pre existing cells through cell division
