A. helps ensure reproductive success.
B. helps create and maintain genetic diversity.

The options attached to the question above are given below:
A. All living and nonliving things consist of one or more cells.
B. Cells and living organisms are spontaneously created.
C. Cells are the most complex unit of structure and function in living things.
D. A cell is the basic unit of structure and function of all organisms
ANSWER
The correct option is D.
The cell theory is one of the major theories in biology and it states the facts about living cells. The theory states that, the cell is the most basic unit of all organisms and all living organisms are made up of one or more cells. The organisms that are made up of only one cell are described as unicellular while those that possess many cells are described as multi cellular. The theory also states that all cells come from pre-existing cells.
Answer:
The nucleus, cell membrane and cytoplasm.
Explanation:
The nucleus, cell membrane and cytoplasm are three elements that cannot be absent in a cell because they are necessary for the survival of the cell. The nucleus controls and regulates the activities happening inside the cell e.g. growth and metabolism etc. Cell membrane acts as a wall to protect the inner part of the cell from the external environment as well as allows nutrients and gases inside and outside the cell. Cytoplasm serves as a medium for the conduction of nutrients and waste from on place to another and also for the medium for organelles in which they floats.
Answer:
The three fatty acids can be different from one another. Since the hydrocarbon chains are very non-polar, fats do no dissolve in water; instead, fat molecules tend to coalesce with one another. Since a fat molecule has 3 fatty acids connected to a glycerol molecule, they are also called triglycerides.
