Choose the false statement: (Regarding Pasteur’s famous experiment) The swan necked flasks were important because they allowed the broth to remain sterile, while still remaining open to the atmosphere. Pasteur’s work with the swan neck flasks was only of importance to the food industry; his work occurred long before anyone, including Pasteur, had any awareness that diseases could be caused by microscopic agents. The swan necked flasks were used to prove that life could only arise from pre-existing cells.
Describe the four major events in the early history of microbiology. Define spontaneous generation and outline the experiment by Pasteur that refuted spontaneous generation.
Describe the three major events discussed in the “Golden age” of microbiology. Define chemotherapy. List the key figures and their contributions to the discovery of antibiotics.
Describe the experiments Pasteur used to disprove theidea of spontaneous generation
