La teoría celular establece que todas las cosas vivas están compuestas por células, que son la unidad básica de la vida, y que todas las células surgen de células preexistentes. La generación espontánea, que sugiere que los organismos pueden surgir de materia inerte, fue rechazada. La opción "All cells arise from pre - existing cells by division" es una de las postulados de la teoría celular y también es una repudiación de la generación espontánea.
