THEORY OF THE ORIGINOF LIFE
The theory of abiogenesis is a theory which states that
living things come from inanimate matter. Weird, right?
But, that's how it looked in the past. This happened
because people in ancient times got facts from what
they saw. How did people at that time think fish and
frogs came from the mud because they saw these
creatures "popping out of the mud". How do they think
that worms come from the ground?
As can be seen from the contents of his theory,
adherents of abiogenesis were scientists in the past
such as Aristotle (384-322 BC) who later, Antony an
Leuwenhoek, a Dutchman, in 1677 also supported him.
Antony showed, through his microscope, that the tiny
creatures came from soaked straw. Then, in the 19th
century, this theory was debunked.
2. Theory of Biogenesis
The theory of biogenesis is the theory of the origin of life
which states that living things come from other living
things. The scientists who put forward this theory were
Francesco Redi, Lazzaro Spallanzani, and Louis
Pasteur. They make separate observations that are
more planned and structured.
