Use your diagrams above to answer the
following question.
34. How do the two pictures relate to evidence
of the cell theory?
Answers will vary. All cells have similar parts.
Discuss the evidence for the cell
theory
The cell theory states that:
1. Cells are the smallest unit of life
2. All organisms are composed of one or more cells
3. All cells come from preexisting cells
• The cell theory can’t be ‘proven true’ because that would require us
to examine every single cell, which would be an impossible task.
However the theory would be ‘proven false’ if a scientist made a
discovery that violated the existing cell theory.
•
Evidence for the cell theory comes from observation and
experimentation. When observed with a light microscope, every
kind of cell - from every kind of organism – has so far upheld the
central tenets of the cell theory.
•
The statement that all living cells come from pre-existing cells does
not mean that life has always existed; biologists believe that selfreplicating molecules gradually evolved into the earliest cells.
• There is compelling evidence that
mitochondria and chloroplasts were once
primitive bacterial cells. This evidence is
described in the endosymbiotic theory.

questions.
