Q

Cell theory

A
  • Developed from Robert Hooke’s research
  • Cells are the building blocks of all plants and animals
  • All cells come from the division of preexisting cells
  • Cells are the smallest units that perform all vital physiological functions
  • Each cell maintains homeostasis at the cellular level
