Which statement describes Redi's experiment, which helped disprove spontaneous generation?
Lelu [443]

Answer:

He examined covered and uncovered meat to determine that maggots came from eggs.

Explanation:

Prior to Redi's experiment and other supporting experiments, it was formerly believed that life could emanate from non-living things, for example, the generation of maggots from rotting meat.

In 1668, a scientist called Francesco Redi disproved the idea of spontaneous generation. He did this when he experimented that the maggots from meats are only as a result of eggs laid by flies when they perched on the meat.

He placed the meat in two jars; an uncovered jar and another in a covered jar with a cloth, after several days, the uncovered jar had maggots on the meat, while the covered jar had no maggot on the meat, but on the cloth. With this experiment, he was able to demonstrate that the maggot arose from the eggs of the flies, not the meat itself which is nonliving and hence, disproved the idea of spontaneous generation.

If you turned a frog egg upside down, you would expect it to reorient relative to gravity because?
lianna [129]

If you turned a frog egg upside down, you would expect it to reorient relative to gravity because the dense yolk granules concentrated in the vegetal hemisphere of the egg respond to gravity.

The frog egg is very large as compared to the normal egg cell. It is unevenly distributed with a top dark colored pole called animal pole and a light yolky pole called a vegetal pole.

The vegetal pole is concentrated with the yolk that is present for providing the nourishment to the growing embryo. The animal pole is the one from where the sperm enters and the development of embryo take place.

As the vegetal pole is denser as compared to animal pole so it will respond to the gravity and reorient along the direction of gravity.
