    Correct Answer
    A. Abiogenesis
    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.

    Correct Answer
    A. Germ theory of Dx
    Explanation
    The correct answer is Germ theory of Dx. The germ theory of disease states that microorganisms, such as bacteria and viruses, are the primary causes of infectious diseases. This theory was developed by Louis Pasteur and Robert Koch in the late 19th century and revolutionized our understanding of how diseases spread and can be prevented. It led to advancements in hygiene, sterilization techniques, and the development of vaccines and antibiotics to combat infectious diseases.
