Dear Student, No, he is wrong.
According to cell theory given by Schwann and Schleiden, all the living cells arise from pre-existing cells. Maggots can not form out of rotting garbage (organic waste) on their own. The development of maggots is dependent on fly (whether it lay eggs or not). Moreover, the garbage is rotten this means it is decomposed by the bacteria. Bacteria is a lower form of life whereas maggots and flies are higher forms of life.

A friend tells you he read somewhere that rotting garbage can turn into maggots, which are fly larvae, and the maggots then can row into adult flies. What part of the cell theory could you use to refute this claim?
Hooke
First to ID cells and name them.
Leeuwenhoek
Observed live cells and in greater detail due to better microscope lenses.
Schleiden
Plants are made of cells.
Schwann
Animals and livings thing are made of cells.
Virchow
All cells come from other living things.
One of the unifying concepts of biology; helped people understand that life didn't arise form non-living sources
Give 2 reasons why the cell theory is important.
Prokaryotic cells No organelles Eukaryotic cells
Has nucleus and other membrane bound organelles
Prokaryotic cells
DNA loose in cytoplasm (no nucleus)
Eukaryotic cells
Organisms can be single or multicellular.
In the cytoplasm of eukaryotic cells
Where do you find organelles?
The cell theory
What statements summarize scientists' concepts of cells?
Mitochondria
Turns food into usable energy.
Cell wall and chloroplasts
What 2 organelles are found in plant cells but not in animal cells?
Nucleus
Double membrane layer that stores and protects DNA; includes the nucleolus, a dense region where ribosomes are assembled.
Endoplasmic reticulum
Network of thin folded membranes that help produce proteins and lipids; two kinds: smooth and rough.
Ribosomes
Tiny round organelles that link amino acids together to form proteins; may be in the cytoplasm or in the ER, which makes it look rough.
Golgi apparatus
Stacked layers of membranes that sort, package, and deliver proteins.
Vesicles
Little sacs that carry different molecules where they're needed; made and broken down as needed by the cell.
Vacuoles
Sacs that store material for the cell; the materials might be water, food molecules, ions, and enzymes.
Centrioles
Found in animal cells; organize microtubules to form cilia and flagella.
Cell walls
Strong layer that protects, supports and gives shape to plant cells; not found in animal cells.
Chloroplasts
Change energy from the sun into chemical energy for the plant; not found in animal cells.
Cytoplasm
Jellylike substance that fills a cell.
Cell membrane
Double-layer of phospholipids that forms a boundary between a cell and its surrounding environment.
Lysosomes
Membrane-bound organeles that contain enzymes.
