Louis Pasteur is the scientist who demonstrated that microorganisms do not arise from spontaneous generation through his famous experiments with swan-necked flasks in the 19th century.
He had two jars with a steak in it. In the first jar he left it open and saw that as the flies came, maggots were produced. In the next jar he put a lid and the flies weren't able to get in and no maggots were produced. Which supports how spontaneous generation isn't possible.
The idea that maggots were produced by rotting meat is an example of the theory of spontaneous generation, which suggested that living organisms could emerge from non-living matter. This theory was later disproven by Louis Pasteur through his experiments that showed the importance of microorganisms in the process of decay.
Francesco Redi did an experiment in 1668 that disproved a belief that maggots spontaneously generated on rotting meat. His experiment was to place meat into sets of jars: one set he left open to the air, one set he covered with very fine gauze, one set was completely sealed. Maggots appeared on the meat in the open jars; flies laid eggs on the gauze but no maggots appeared because the scent of rotting meat provides no nourishment; nothing appeared on the meat in the completely sealed jars. Redi believed in spontaneous generation of many things, just not fly maggots. He is credited with beginning the experiments using controls method used now.
The generation produced by crossing two pure organisms is called the F1 generation. This generation is the first filial generation and consists of hybrids that are a result of the cross between the two pure organisms.
This idea is known as spontaneous generation, which was the belief that living organisms could arise from nonliving matter. aristotle and other ancient thinkers believed in this concept, but it was later disproven by experiments conducted by Francesco Redi and Louis Pasteur.

bacteria/ maggots etc are produced by the item which is rotting, rather than causing the rot to occur
Spontaneous Generation is a now discredited theory that certain living things could be produced spontaneously from non-living matter. For example, before the life cycle of the fly was understood, maggots were thought to be the products of Spontaneous Generation, as they seemed to appear spontaneously in dead animals at that were left exposed for a time.

He demonstrated that new bacteria appeared in broth only when they were produced by living bacteria. The experiments of Redi and Pasteur helped to convince people that living things do not arise from nonliving material.
1993 to presentThe first generation (JA) Kia Sportage was produced from 1993 to 2004.The second generation (KM) Kia Sportage was produced from 2004 to 2010.The third generation (SL) Kia Sportage was produced from 2010 to 2015Production of the fourth generation Kia Sportage (QL) will commence 2016.
F1 Generation
The generation produced by crossing two pure organisms is called the F1 generation. This generation is the first filial generation and consists of hybrids that are a result of the cross between the two pure organisms.
Second generation produced in mosses is sporophyte on the gametophytic plant body.
