Explanation:

The theory of Spontaneous Generation of life states that life can come from non living matter or material without the processes of reproduction.

Francesco Redi an Italian Scientist decided to carry out an experiment in 1668 to test the hypothesis that maggots arose via spontaneous generation from rotting meat

He placed meat in two jars, one of the jars was open while this other jar was covered tightly, the open jar had maggots in the rotten meat. For the second jar , he decided to use a gauze or a cloth to cover the jar, the smell of the meat attracted the flies and the meat in the jar didn't have any maggot present but the gauze did have maggot on them.

This proved that maggots did not just come from the rotting meat spontaneously instead, they came from when flies laid eggs on the meat or on the gauze.

Francesco Redi experiment proved or predicted that All life comes from life.
