Biology

RSB [31]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

<em>Many scientists opposed the "cell theory" </em>when it was first introduced because they believed that <u>even "non-living matters" could produce or generate a living tissue.</u> This was called<em> </em><em>"spontaneous generation."</em><em> </em>The appearance of the fly's larva<em> (maggots)</em> on meat supported this belief of theirs.

It was Louis Pasteur who was able to disprove this concept.

Explanation:

The discovery of cell came about when the microscope was invented. It was first discovered by Robert Hooke, an English natural philosopher in the <em>1600s</em>.  However, he wasn't really sure about the structure and function of the cell during his time. It was Anton van Leeuwenhoek, a Dutch scientist, who proposed that "<em>motility"</em> is a quality of life.

Developing the cell theory was credited to Theodor Schwann and Matthias Schleiden.

New crust and hydrothermal vents forms at ridges formed at a ______________ boundary.
natita [175]

Answer:

Option B, Divergent Boundary

Explanation:

The tectonic plates moving around form the divergent boundary and at this boundary magma from inside the earth rises to form new crust on the lithosphere beneath the water. Most of the divergent plate boundaries are present below the water where they form oceanic spreading ridges (submarine mountain ranges). The process of formation of oceanic spreading ridges is volcanic.

Hence, option B is correct
