DESCRIPTION
Origin of Life Before the 17 th century people believed in a process called spontaneous generation. Living things could arise from non-living things. Why did they think that? If they would leave rotting meat out then maggot seem to appear so the meat must give rise to maggots. (NOT Exactly)
