Darwin’s idea on evolution by natural selection has been disproven when it comes to the origin of life because Pasteur discredited spontaneous generation.A) True.B) True, with regards to origin of life only; natural selection applies to later lifeC) False. Pasteur’s experiment discredited ideas that complex organisms (e.g., mice) could arise in weeks or months later from inanimate matter (e.g., cloth) or from other organisms (e.g., grain). Pasteur’s experiment does not discredit the possibility of simple life evolving over billions of year
