Description: (Italian Physiologist and Biologist Who Made Significant Contributions to the Study of Animal Reproduction and Bodily Functions)
Lazzaro Spallanzani was a prominent Italian biologist and physiologist known for his groundbreaking research on bodily functions, animal reproduction, and animal echolocation. His significant contributions to the experimental study of biogenesis led to the rejection of the theory of spontaneous generation. His experiments, particularly on fertilization and in vitro fertilization, were compiled in his influential book "Experiencias Para Servir a La Historia de La Generación De Animales y Plantas," which laid the foundation for modern biology.
