Explanation Abiogenesis refers to the now-discredited theory that living organisms can arise spontaneously from inanimate matter. This theory was widely accepted until the 19th century when Louis Pasteur's experiments disproved it and supported the concept of biogenesis, which states that living organisms can only arise from pre-existing living organisms. Therefore, Abiogenesis is the correct answer as it accurately describes the concept of spontaneous generation.

A. 
Disinfection
B. 
Sterilization
C. 
Pasteurization
D. 
Sanitization
Correct Answer B. Sterilization
Explanation Sterilization is the correct answer because it refers to the process of completely killing or eliminating all microorganisms, including bacteria, viruses, and fungi. This process is commonly used in healthcare settings, laboratories, and food preparation industries to ensure the complete removal of any potential pathogens or contaminants. Disinfection, pasteurization, and sanitization are all related processes but do not guarantee the complete elimination of all microorganisms like sterilization does.
