Term
which parts of the cell theory have been supported with evidence to be wrong and which have been supported to be right. |
|
Definition
1) many organims have been examined and have beeen found to consist of cells, but there are somecases wehretheidea of livingorganims consistingof tiny box likestructures does not seemotfit. for example, skeletal is made up of muscle fibres.
2) Also, whereas cells taken from an organisms often survive for atime smaller fo an organsim donot. cells dothereforeseem tobe smallest unitsof life that arecpableof survival.
3) there is also evidence for the third of the cell theory . some of the classic experiments inbiology showed that spontaneousgenration of life is impossible. |

Definition
defined as cells that have the capacity to self renew by cell division and to differentiate. Human embryos consist entirely of stem cells in their early stages,but gradually the cells in the emrbyo commite themselves to a pattern of differentation. |

Term
once committed, a cell may still divide several times, although,the cells will cease to differentiate in the sameway and will continue to exist as stem cells. |
|
Definition
false, all of the cells formed will differentiate in the same way and so tey are no longer stem cells. |
