Question

think about cell theory and the cell models you have seen. then, select the true statements about these human cells.

• the cells were formed when other human cells divided.
• each cell has a cell membrane and a cytoplasm that contains cell parts.
• each cell contains parts that work together to carry out processes necessary for life.
• the cells cannot be represented by models because their structures are too complex.

Explanation:

• The first statement aligns with cell theory (all cells come from pre-existing cells).
• The second statement is true: all human cells have a cell membrane and cytoplasm with organelles.
• The third statement is true: organelles collaborate to perform life processes (e.g., energy production, protein synthesis).
• The fourth statement is false: cells can be represented by models (e.g., 2D diagrams, 3D models) to simplify complex structures.

Answer:

The cells were formed when other human cells divided., Each cell has a cell membrane and a cytoplasm that contains cell parts., Each cell contains parts that work together to carry out processes necessary for life.
