D) It Addresses The Formation Of Living Cells From Previously Nonliving Material.

,Ans: C Reference:
Section 1.1
Bloom's Level: Remembering
Los: Chp1-2. Describe The Two Components Of The Cell Theory.
5) Recall Pasteur's Experiment On Spontaneous Generation. Originally, He Used Sealed And
Unsealed Flasks Instead Of Swan-Necked And Unsealed Flasks. Critics Claimed That The
Experiment Was Inconclusive. Which Of The Following Criticisms Would Be Addressed By
Using A Swan-Necked Flask Instead Of The Sealed Flask?
A) The Broth Was Heated Too Intensively.
