Q: True or False? “All plant parts are made of cells.
A: True. This is the information that Schleiden
added to the cell theory.
Q: Name the three parts of the cell theory.
A: 1. All organisms are made up of one or more
cells.
2. The cell is the basic unit of all living things.
3. All cells come from existing cells.
Q: Why are most cells very small?
A: Their volume is limited by how large their
surface area is.
Q: What is the part of the cell that keeps the

cell and its environment?
A: cell membrane
Q: What does the cytoskeleton do?
A: One of its functions is to keep the cell membrane
from collapsing.
Q: The nucleus has DNA. What does the DNA
carry?
