Lazzaro Spallanzani was an Italian biologist who made significant contributions to the study of animal reproduction and bodily functions. He is known for his experiments on the role of sperm in fertilization and for disproving the theory of spontaneous generation. Spallanzani also studied the digestive processes in animals and the effects of heat on organic matter.
Lazzaro Spallanzani performed experiments on the spontaneous generation of life in the late 18th century, around the 1760s and 1770s. His experiments involved disproving the idea that life could arise spontaneously from non-living matter.
Lazzaro Spallanzani conducted his experiments on spontaneous generation in the late 18th century, around the 1760s to 1770s. He demonstrated that microorganisms did not arise spontaneously but were introduced through the air and other external sources.
Lazzaro Spallanzani was an Italian abbot and biologist who conducted experiments that built upon and refuted Needham's findings on spontaneous generation. Spallanzani's controlled experiments showed that microorganisms did not spontaneously generate but were carried in the air and required contact with living matter to grow.
Lazzaro Spallanzani conducted experiments in the 18th century that challenged the idea of spontaneous generation by showing that microorganisms do not arise from non-living matter. His work supported the theory of biogenesis, which posits that living organisms can only arise from other living organisms.
He repeated John Needham's experiment in which nutrient fluids (Chicken broth) was put into a sealed flask then heated. The nutrient medium could be stored and microoganisms did not arise from it. This experiment disproved the Spontaneous Generation and paved the way for Pasteur's research. Spallanzani was largely criticised under claims that microorganisms needed oxygen to survive. He was also a pioneer in the fertilization an experiment which he produced with frogs. :) hope that helps.

it's who were Lazzar Spallanzani's parents. Gianniccolò and Lucia Spallanzani were his parents names. Lucia was a typical house wife and Gianniccolò was a successful lawyer.
rjhdd
He is a man who stopped people thinking that spontanious stuff happened. xD
