Spontaneous generation is the idea that a living thing can arise from nonliving material. This idea was a prevailing theory up u
ntil the late 1700s. What most likely caused this theory to be discarded? A. a series of experiments showed that living things only arise when other living things reproduce B. a series of experiments showed that nonliving materials are covered in microorganisms C. ideas in the late 1700s became old-fashioned and scientists looked for new, fresh ideas D. research in the field of biology proved that most living things reproduce sexually
Scientists disproved the theory of Spontaneous generation by creating experiments that showed living things cannot arise from nonliving material. An example of this is the flask experiment conducted by Louis Pasteur.
Force arrows are used to represent both the magnitude and direction of forces. The length of the arrow corresponds to the magnitude of the force, with longer arrows indicating forces with larger magnitudes. :) hope this helps
