So we're asked a question that has to do with the cell theory.
00:04
And before we even get into what the question entails, let's start by defining what the cell theory is.
00:09
So the cell theory is basically a set of three statements that describe life as we know it.
00:15
The first statement is that the cell is equal to or is the basic unit of life, which brings us to our next statement, which is that anything that's a living is made up of cells.
00:35
So if cells are the basic unit of life, it just makes sense that all living things are made up of cells, all living organisms.
00:55
And then our third and final point of the cell theory is that all cells come from preexisting cells.
01:16
And what this third point means is that cells don't just magically appear.
01:21
They originate from already living cells.
01:23
So cells divide to make more cells.
01:26
Cells don't just spontaneously appear in the universe.
01:30
Now moving on to our question, now that we have a basic understanding of what the cell theory is, our question was, which of the following is not a part of the cell theory? so the first step in me and i have written here is that cells are the basic unit of life.
01:44
As you said before, that's point one of the cell theory...
