In this activity, you will identify the conclusions that can be drawn from Pasteur's experiments using S-shaped neck flasks. Which of the following conclusions can be drawn from Pasteur's experiment involving the flasks with S-shaped necks? Select all statements that apply. a. Pasteur's observations support the theory of spontaneous generation. b. Microbes can be blocked from accessing favorable growth environments. c. Beef broth is an unsuitable environment for growing microorganisms. d. Microbial life can be destroyed by heat. e. Microorganisms can be present in nonliving matter, such as air, liquids, and solids. f. Microbial life can arise from nonliving matter. g. Pasteur's observations support the theory of biogenesis.

The correct answer would be :

b. Microbes can be blocked from accessing favorable growth environments.

d. Microbial life can be destroyed by heat.

e. Microorganisms can be present in nonliving matter, such as air, liquids, and solids.

g. Pasteur's observations support the theory of biogenesis.

Explanation:

Pasteur's experiment with s-shaped neck flasks indicated that organisms can't emerge from nonliving materials under the conditions that existed on Earth during his lifetime.

It helps in testing the role of airborne contaminants in producing microbes in the nonliving matter by the biogenesis theory. His experiment showed and supports that heat can kill or destroy microbial life.

Thus, the correct answer would be -  b., d, e., and g.

trachea, alveoli, lung capillaries, arteries

d. cellulose and starch
