Compare the modern Cell Theory to the original Cell Theory

Biology
1 answer:
CaHeK987 [17]3 years ago
6 0
The statements of the old cell theory are:
1. All organisms are composed of cells
2. The cell is the basic unit of life
3. Cells are produced from existing cells

The modern cell theory's statements are:
1. The cell contains hereditary information which is passed to daughter cells
2. All cells are basically the same in composition and activity
3. All basic functions occur in cells
4. Cell activities depend on intracellular structures

As is visible from the statements, the old cell theory was not as detailed and lacked the understanding of the function, structure and behavior of cells that the current theory possesses. This difference has come about after years of research, through which scientists understood the functions of cells and elaborated on the theory's statements.
