Anton van Leeuwenhoek
|

|
Suppose that a proponent of the spontaneous generation hypothesis claimed that cells would appear in Pasteur's swan-necked flask eventually. According to this view, Pasteur did not allow enough time to pass before concluding that life does not originate spontaneously. What is the best response?
|
If spontaneous generation did not occur after weeks or months, it is not reasonable to claim that it would occur later.
|
|
lumen
|
interior space of any hollow structure or organ.
|
|
Negative control
|
control in which you know nothing will happen
