What is Cell Theory? What does it state? - ANSWER: Cell Theory describes the
properties and functions of cells.
All living things are made up of cells, cells are the basic units of structure and
function in living things, new cells are produced from existing cells
Why is cell theory so important? What did it disprove, etc? - ANSWER: Cell Theory is
importany because it provides a way to comprehend and learn about the structure
and function of cells, which makes every living thing. One reason of its importance
was that it gave a unified concept of life: that despite the diversity of God's creation,
teh cell is the basic and common structural and functional unit. Further, it allows
man to know how he and all life develops, matures, grows, and reproduces. Cell
Theory disproves the idea of spontaneous generation, the idea that organisms can
arise from non-living matter. Cell Theory states that all cells come from pre-existing
cells; hence, life cannot arise from non-living matter.
T/F: All organisms are made of more than one cell. - ANSWER: False
T/F: All cells have a plasma membrane, cytoplasm, and ribosomes - ANSWER: True
T/F: Proteins are made on ribosomes. - ANSWER: True
T/F: Prokaryotic cells have a nucleus. - ANSWER: False
T/F: The plasma membrane forms the physical boundary between the cell and its
environment. - ANSWER: True
