1. which of the following are fundamental ideas of the cell theory? select all that apply.

a. cell arise only from preexisting cells
b. all living organisms are composed of one or more cells
c. cells are the basic unit of structure and function in living things
d. all organisms contain prokaryotic cells

1. robert hooke observed cork tissue from a plant using a microscope and saw small, honeycomb - like structures, as shown in the image. what contribution did hooke make to biology based on his observations?

cork tissue
image of cork tissue under microscope
a. he named the small structures organelles
b. he named the small structures cells
c. he stated that all cells come from preexisting cells
d. he stated that every living thing is made up of more than one cell

Explanation:

Question 1-5 (Matching Scientists to Contributions)

1. Rudolf Virchow proposed that all cells must come from preexisting cells, so 1 matches e.
2. Robert Hooke developed the term "cell" after seeing cork cells, so 2 matches a.
3. Matthias Schleiden proposed that all plants were made of cells, so 3 matches c.
4. Anton van Leeuwenhoek was the first to view a living cell, so 4 matches b.
5. Theodor Schwann proposed that all animals were made of cells, so 5 matches d.

• Option a: Cells arise from preexisting cells is part of cell theory.
• Option b: All living organisms have one or more cells is a key idea.
• Option c: Cells are the basic unit of structure/function is part of cell theory.
• Option d: Not all organisms have prokaryotic cells (e.g., eukaryotes), so d is incorrect.

• Option a: Hooke did not name them organelles.
• Option b: Hooke named the cork structures "cells" (after small rooms), which matches his contribution.
• Option c: Virchow proposed cells come from preexisting cells, not Hooke.
• Option d: Hooke did not state all living things have more than one cell.

Answer:

1. e. Rudolf Virchow
2. a. Robert Hooke
3. c. Matthias Schleiden
4. b. Anton van Leeuwenhoek
5. d. Theodor Schwann
