Redi’s Experiment Proved that flies did not spontaneously generate from rotting meat. Proved that adult flies came from maggots.

Spallanzani’s Experiment
Boiled meat broth to prove that microorganisms came from other microorganisms. Everyone was stuck on spontaneous generation so said his experiment was completely inaccurate.
