how did the theory of biogenesis lead the way for germ theory disease
The germ theory of disease is the theory that microorganisms are the cause of disease. They spread when the host is exposed to the pathogen by various means.
The theory of biogenesis established that living organisms arise from preexisting living organisms. This laid the foundation for the germ theory of disease by challenging the widespread belief in spontaneous generation of life forms and highlighting the role of microorganisms, or germs, in causing infectious diseases. The understanding that germs can be transferred from one organism to another through various means was pivotal in the development of the germ theory of disease.
Louis Pasteur
The Germ Theory of disease states that illness is caused by germ like substances, it was first suggested in the fourth century B.C. by the Greek philosopher Democritus.Hope this Helps!
Louis Pasteur and Robert Koch are credited with proving the germ theory of disease in the late 19th century. Pasteur's experiments on fermentation and disease-causing microorganisms, coupled with Koch's postulates for identifying the specific microbes that cause disease, formed the foundation for the germ theory.
