Cell Theory Honors

What are the three things proposed by the original Cell Theory?

• All organisms are made up of one or more cells, all the life functions of an organism occur within cells, all cells come from preexisting cells

• All known living things are made up of one or more cells, all living cells arise from pre-existing cells by division, the cell is the fundamental unit of structure and function in all living organisms

• All organisms are made up of one or more cells, all living cells arise from pre-existing cells by division, the cell is the fundamental unit of structure and function in all living organisms

• All known living things are made up of one or more cells, all the life functions of an organism occur within cells, all cells come from preexisting cells

How does the modern Cell Theory differ from the original Cell Theory?

• All organisms are made up of one or more cells, all the life functions of an organism occur within cells, all cells come from preexisting cells

• All known living things are made up of one or more cells, all living cells arise from pre-existing cells by division, the cell is the fundamental unit of structure and function in all living organisms

• All organisms are made up of one or more cells, all living cells arise from pre-existing cells by division, the cell is the fundamental unit of structure and function in all living organisms

• All known living things are made up of one or more cells, all the life functions of an organism occur within cells, all cells come from preexisting cells

How has the Cell Theory developed?

• All organisms are made up of one or more cells, all living cells arise from pre-existing cells by division, the cell is the fundamental unit of structure and function in all living organisms

• All known living things are made up of one or more cells, all the life functions of an organism occur within cells, all cells come from preexisting cells
