A 19th century scientist investigates cell growth by placing boiled broth in one Erlenmeyer flask and non-boiled broth in another flask. The scientist covered both flasks so that air could not enter the flasks and observed them for two weeks. Neither flask grew any biological matter. From this, the scientist concluded that abiogenesis or spontaneous generation was an invalid theory. A) The conclusion is invalid because the scientist did not wait long enough for anaerobic cells to grow in the broth.
B) The conclusion is invalid because living objects often require air to grow regardless if their origin was spontaneous or not.
C) Since no colonies of cells grew in either flask, the conclusion is valid because spontaneous generation predicts that cells should grow spontaneously.
D) Since no colonies of cells grew in either flask, the conclusion is valid because cells can only grow from other cells

What is the difference between the conducting zone and the respiratory zone of the respiratory system? the conducting zone is a series of cavities and tubes that move air to the respiratory zone where gases exchange with the bloodstream. the conducting zone exchanges gases between the lungs and the alveoli and the respiratory zone is a series of cavities and tubes that move air to the conducting zone. the conducting zone moves oxygen into the cells and the respiratory zone takes carbon dioxide away from the cells. the conducting zone moves oxygen into the bloodstream and the respiratory zone takes carbon dioxide away from the bloodstream.
