Cite and discuss a specific example on the role of physics in biology.
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.
Redi established that rotten meat does not produce flies.
Redi demonstrated that given enough time and air, maggots (the larvae of flies) can arise directly from rotten meat.
The gauze that Redi used to cover one of the jars allowed the flies to smell the rotten meat inside but prevented them from depositing their eggs on the meat.

- There still seems to be an issue with this answer. The database is saying it's wrong.arrow_forwardWhen we use petrol we are ultimately using stored energy from the sun. Plants capture the energy when growing, and then through a long process of decay and compression this plant matter is converted into a fossil fuel. An interesting question is how much sunlight is needed to produce a quantity of petrol. To estimate this, let's assume the petrol has come from wood, and let's assume we have a fast-growing wood source such as Pinus radiata. Assume also: a mature tree contains around 3 m3 of timber; a tree is harvested when 35 years old; the density of wood is around 500 kg/m3; 2 kg of wood makes 1L of petrol; a tree receives on average 8 hours of sunlight per day. How many "hours of sunlight" are stored in 1L of petrol? i.e. how many hours of sunlight does a tree need to be exposed to, to produce the amount of wood needed to make 1 L of petrol?
