Biology
1 answer:
kkurt [141]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Spontaneous generation, the hypothetical process by which living organisms develop from nonliving matter.

Explanation:

In 1668, Francesco Redi, an Italian scientist, designed a scientific experiment to test the spontaneous creation of maggots by placing fresh meat in each of two different jars. One jar was left open; the other was covered with a cloth. Days later, the open jar contained maggots, whereas the covered jar contained no maggots. He did note that maggots were found on the exterior surface of the cloth that covered the jar. Redi successfully demonstrated that the maggots came from fly eggs and thereby helped to disprove spontaneous generation.

Why do scientist use the light year instead of astronomical units to measure the distance between stars ?
Evgesh-ka [11]
Astronomers use light years to measure distances in space because space is so massive and distances so far that conventional numbering is inadequate and unmanageable. One light year is a distance measurement equivalent to six trillion miles.

Which statement describes littoral zones?
Dima020 [189]
The best answer is E) All of the above. 

The littoral zone is the region where the land meets a body of water, and although the exact definition can vary, it generally includes land that is always dry and a region that is always submerged. A and B more or less say the same thing, and both describe the littoral zone. It almost always features vegetation (think of plants growing out of marshes and near/in the shore of rivers and lakes). It stabilizes the soil by providing a more gradual transition from land to water. For example, an area that only the high tide of the sea reaches will feature some chemical composition of the sea bed, such as more water and salinity, and some of the land further inland.
