Essential Question 2
Cell Discovery
11. Cell Theory:
a. All living things are
composed of cells
b. Cells are the basic
units of structure and
function in living things
Cell Discovery
11. Cell Theory:
c. All cells are produced
from other cells
12. Useful microscope?
Magnification
resolution
Cell Discovery
18. Organelles?
Tiny cell structures
that carry out specific
functions in the cell
You have organs, your
cells have organelles

10 x 50 = 500
16. Resolution?
The ability to clearly
distinguish the individual
parts of an object
Cell Discovery
17. Electron
Microscopes?
Use a beam of
electrons instead
of light to produce
the image
