Describe Spontaneous Generation and Biogenesis. - Spontaneous Generation was discovered by Aristotle that new life comes from non-living inanimate material; biogenesis is that living organisms are required to produce new life. How was Spontaneous Generation disproved? - Louis Pasteur developed a special flask in 1864 with a curved neck that allowed air in, but would trap any microorganisms.

IB Biology 1.5 Latest Version Already Graded A Endosymbiotic theory a theory that some eukaryotic organelles, such as mitochondria and chloroplasts, originated as free-living prokaryotes that invaded primitive eukaryotic cells. Allowed growth of smaller cells in a cytoplasm, through endocytosis, and the rapid replication they could persist indefinitely inside the large cells. It also states that mitochondria were once free living prokaryotic organisms that had developed the process ...
