KEY CONCEPT Cells are the Basic unit of life.

The cell theory grew out of the work of many scientists and improvements in the microscope. Many scientists contributed to the cell theory.

The cell theory grew out of the work of many scientists and improvements in the microscope. Many scientists contributed to the cell theory. More was learned about cells as microscopes improved. The cell theory is a unifying concept of biology.

All organisms are made of cells. Early studies led to the development of the cell theory. The Cell theory has three principles. All organisms are made of cells.

Prokaryotic cells lack a nucleus and most internal structures of eukaryotic cells. All cells share certain characteristics.

All cells share certain characteristics. Cells tend to be microscopic. Prokaryotic cells lack a nucleus and most internal structures of eukaryotic cells. All cells share certain characteristics. Cells tend to be microscopic. Bacterium (colored SEM; magnification 8800x)

There are two cell types: eukaryotic cells and prokaryotic cells.

There are two cell types: eukaryotic cells and prokaryotic cells. Eukaryotic cells have a nucleus. nucleus cell membrane

There are two cell types: eukaryotic cells and prokaryotic cells. Eukaryotic cells have a nucleus. Eukaryotic cells have membrane- bound organelles. nucleus organelles cell membrane

Viruses, bacteria, viroids, and prions can all cause infection. Any disease-causing agent is called a pathogen. 1 nanometer (nm) = one billionth of a meter 100 nm eukaryotics cells 10,000-100,000 nm viroids 5-150 nm viruses 50-200 nm prokaryotics cells 200-10,000 nm prion 2-10 nm

A virus is made of DNA or RNA and a protein coat. Viruses are not Technically living/ They can not reproduce on their own.
