Theory

Robert Hooke, Anton van Leeuwenhoek, Theodor Schwann, Rudolf Virchow, and Matthias Schliden were all responsible for what theory?

• The Theory of Gravity

• The Theory of Relativity

• The Cell Theory

• The Theory of Continental Drift

Which statement was NOT included in cell theory?

• All living things are composed of cells.

• Living cells come only from other living cells.

• Each cell contains a cell membrane, cytoplasm, nucleus, mitochondria, and endoplasmic reticulum.

• Cells are the smallest structure of living things that can perform the functions necessary for life.

This early cell theory scientist looked in a microscope and discovered "animalcules" in the gunk from his teeth and pond water.

• Rudolf Virchow

• Anton van Leeuwenhoek

• Theodor Schwann

• Robert Hooke
