|---|---|
| What is the observations and conclusions of scientists? | Cell Theory |
| What 3 things do the cell theory state? | 1. All living things are composed of cells 2. Cells are the basic units of structure and function in living things. 3. All cells come from preexisting cells |
| What are the certain structures that are common to most cells? | The cells of animals, plants, and related organisms have three basic structures: the cell membrane, or outer boundary of the cell; the nucleus, or control center; and the cytoplasm, or material between the cell membrane and the nucleus. |
