Francesco Redi and Spontaneous Generation

The theory of Spontaneous Generation proposed that life or living organisms could be spontaneously
generated from non living matter. Similar to Louis Pasteurs spontaneous generation experiment, the
17th century Italian scientist Franceso Redi conducted an experiment to refute the theory of
Spontaneous Generation nearly 200 years earlier.

Controlled Experiment by Redi

Francesco Redi showed that maggots do not spontaneously arise from decaying meat. To prove this
he designed a simple controlled experiment, now referred to as the Redi Experiment. The idea of a
controlled experiment is that two tests are identical in every aspect, except for one factor. When
carried out simultaneously, the hypothesis is that this differing factor (called the manipulated
variable) is the cause of the different results in each experiment.
Redis Experiment Explained
1. Redi placed meat in two identical jars. He left one jar uncovered and allowed flies to come into
contact with the meat. He covered the other jar with a cheese cloth or other cloth that allowed air to
pass through. Contact with the air allowed the meat to decay, just as the other would. Hypothesis:
Both pieces of meat would decay, but only the one that had physical contact with the flies would
produce maggots. Therefore, the decay itself would be eliminated as the cause.

2. After a short period of time Redi observed maggots (fly larvae) on the decaying meat of the open
jar. There were no maggots on the meat in the covered jar.

3. Redi concluded that the flies laid eggs on the meat in the open jar which caused the maggots.
Because the flies could not lay eggs on the meat in the covered jar, no maggots were produced. Redi
therefore proved that decaying meat did not produce maggots.

I. PURPOSE:
What is the reason for doing the experiment or what is there to be learned from doing the
experiment?

II. HYPOTHESIS:
What "you think" will be the final outcome of the experiment. This is generally based on prior
knowledge or observations. In other words, you are not just pulling this "out of thin air"; you
have some logical reason for thinking this. If you have no prior knowledge of the concept, you
will need to do research before making a hypothesis. Also, explain exactly "why you think
this". REMEMBER! There is no right or wrong answer. It's strictly what "you think" and "why
you think this".

III. MATERIALS:
A list of equipment and supplies that will be needed to complete the lab procedure. List the
major pieces of equipment first. Example, microscope, triple beam balance, 1000 mL
graduated cylinder, etc. Then list common supplies, such as string, paper clips, etc. and
consumables such as vinegar, baking soda, etc.

IV. PROCEDURE:
1. The step by step process that is followed in carrying out the experiment. Preferrably, the steps
are sequentially listed in the order they need to be followed to complete the experiment
successfully. Be very exact with each step in case someone else wants to repeat your
procedure. It's like telling someone how to find your house. The least little mistake or detail left
out could be critical to the outcome of the experiment.
2. Using the safety symbols, identify any precautions that may need to be followed in completing
this experiment.
3. Identify the variables in the experiment:
o Controlled - factors that remain constant throughout the experiment.
o Independent - the one factor that will be manipulated or changed during the experiment.
o Dependent - the variable that becomes altered as a result of the change that was made
in the independent variable.
Try this Pendulum Experiment using variables!

V. OBSERVATIONS:
Scientists record observations in journals or logs. Observations are never destroyed once recorded.
Observations are of two catergories:

Qualitative - information gathered through the senses such as smell, taste, touch, hear, shape,
etc.

Quantitative - information gathered due to precise measurements, such as height in cm, width
in cm, mass in g, volume in cm3, density in g/cm3, time in seconds, speed in kph, etc.

VI. CONCLUSION:
This is a written summary of what was actually learned from doing the experiment. The
conclusion will either support or reject the proposed hypothesis. The following is a three
paragraph format to follow in writing an appropriate conclusion. The outline is a guide to help
you include the necessary information. Adhere to ALL writing rules in completing this
conclusion. Treat it as though you were writing a three paragraph essay in your English
class. Elaboration is ALWAYS the key! INCLUDE THESE "ESSENTIAL ELEMENTS" IN
WRITING EACH PARAGRAPH:

1. Paragraph One:
o In your own words describe the purpose of the experiment.
o Discuss any new terms that were relevant to understanding and conducting the
investigation.
2. Paragraph Two:
o Restate your hypothesis and your reasoning for this prediction.
o Summarize the lab procedure.
o Explain the setup of the lab, control/variable, etc.
o Describe safety precautions.
3. Paragraph Three
o Describe the outcome of the experiment and how it relates to your hypothesis
(supports or rejects).
o Refer to your data tables, graphs, etc. in assessing the data because actual data
from your observations is a "must" in forming a conclusion.
o BE VERY SPECIFIC!
o From your analysis, point out certain trends or patterns that support your
conclusion.

In conclusion, explain exactly what was/was not accomplished or learned from doing the
lab.

Give a detailed description of how you were able to determine the above.

Were there any hidden variables that may have affected the reliability of the data ...
explain?

What suggestions could you make to improve the reliability of the data? How relevant or
useful was this lab in your understanding of the current topic or concept.

Makabagong Teknolohiya Tulong sa Edukasyon

Isa sa mga didyital na gamit sa panahon ngayon ay ang computer. marahil ay kilala
ninyo naman ito dahil ito ay usung-uso ngayon lalo na sa mga kabataan. Hindi ba't ito'y
nakatutulong sa ating pag-aaral?
Gumagamit ang mga kabataan ng computer upang makapag-search o maghanap na
makatutulong sa pag-aaral ng nakararami. Maraming gamit ang didyital na kagamitang ito.

Paano nga ba ito nakatutulong sa ating pag-aaral?

Maraming mabuting naidudulot ito para sa ating kabataan. Tulad na lamang ng pag-search
na malaking tulong dahil sa internet. Sa halip na maghahanap ka pa sa mga ga-tambak na libro
ay i-search mo lang hayan na at lalabas na ang iyong hinahanap! Gumagamit ka rin ba nito na
minsan ng nakatulong sa iyong pag-aaral?
Hindi ba, napakasarap namang gumamit ng makabagong teknolohiya? Nakikita mo ba ang
ritrato ng mga makabagong kagamitan ngayon? Hindi ba't napakamoderno? Dito ay pwedengpwede kang maghanap nang maghanap ng mga gustuhin mo na dagdag impormasyon at mas
mapa-uunlad pa ang kaalaman sa pag-aaral. Napakaswerte naman natin na ibinigay sa atin ang
teknolohiya.
Malawak na impormasyon at kayamanan sa kaalaman. Hayan ang naidulot sa atin ng
teknolohiya.Sapat na kaya ang mga impormasyon na nakukuha natin dito para sa atin?
Nakaranas ka na bang gumamit ng didyital na gamit tulad ng computer? Paano ito
nakatulong sa iyong pag-aaral? Anu-ano ang magaganda at masasamang naidulot nito sa iyong
pag-aaral? Makabagong teknolohiya nakatutulong nga ba sa atin?
Teknolohiya sa tama gamitin at huwag itong aabusuhin upang ito'y hindi maka-apekto sa
atin. Ang teknolohiya ay paka-ingatan para na rin sa magandang kinabukasan. Atin pa itong
pagyamanin dahil ang teknolohiya ay minsan nang ibinigay sa atin. Hindi naman habambuhay ay
ito'y ating magagamit. Ito lamang ay isang instrumento na makatutulong na mapaunlad pa ang
ating kaalaman at impormasyon. Teknolohiya, paka-ingatan para sa magandang kinabukasan.
Napakarami ng naitulong sa atin ng teknolohiya. Tulad na lamang sa mga takdang-aralin na
makatutulong. Maaari rin namang mag-print na nakatutulong rin. Maaaring mag-translate upang
hindi na mahirapan. Maaari rin namang maghanap ng mga larawan na malaking tulong sa ating
pag-aaral.

Marami itong naidulot na napakaganda para sa ating araw-araw na pamumuhay.

Halimbawa ,ikaw ay naghahanap ng trabaho, at gusto mong malaman kung ano ba ito, maaari ka
ring maghanap dito.

Marami rin itong epekto sa mga kabataang kagaya ko. Tulad ng pagbaba ng mga marka
at pagliban sa klase para lang dito. Hindi nila lubos na maintindihan ang kanilangpinag-aaralan
dahil lang dito. Marami ring kabataan sa panahon ngayon ang kinalolokohan ang mga ganitong
bagay tulad ng mga laro na imbis na makatulong ay lalo pang nakasisira sa kanilang pag-aaral.
