Answer: covalent bond.

Explanation:

A covalent bond is formed when an element shares its valence electron with another element. This bond is formed between two non metals.

An ionic bond is formed when an element completely transfers its valence electron to another element. The element which donates the electron is known as electropositive element and the element which accepts the electrons is known as electronegative element. This bond is formed between a metal and an non-metal.

As P_2I_4 or Diphosphorus tetraiodide is made up of phosphorous and iodine which are both non metals , it is a covalent bond.

1. cell is the smallest functional unit of life: It can be observed under the microscope that cells have various type of molecules and organelles present and have adifferent functional role in the cell which explains that the cell is the smallest unit of life as its molecules or organelles can not carry the life process on their own.

2. All organisms are made up of cells: From bacteria and archaea to human and other life forms are made up of a single cell or organization of cells in a specific pattern it also can be observed by the microscopic of blood or other tissue or cell of an organism.

3. Arise from pre-existing cell: The cells are can be studied under a microscope during cell division where we can observe that new cells come from the pre existing cell by the cell division.
