Francesco Redi (1626–1697) was an Italian physician who is perhaps best known for his 1668 experiment with flies. Which of the following is least consistent with this experiment? Group of answer choices   The experiment is regarded as one of the first steps in refuting "spontaneous generation" -- a theory also known as Aristotelian abiogenesis.   Redi's experiment with flies did not completely disprove spontaneous generation because it could be argued (and it was) that biogenesis (i.e., life from life) must be true for large organisms like flies, but that bacteria could still arise spontaneously.

Helmholtz Free Energy

The Helmholtz free energy is a thermodynamic potential used to calculate the measure of useful work from a closed system. This system is kept at constant temperature and volume. German physicist Hermann Helmholtz introduced this concept in 1882.
