What is the benefit of discovering
the cell theory?

6. Cell theory
All living organisms are composed
of one or more cells.
The cell is the basic unit of
structure and organization in
organisms.
Cells arise from pre-existing cells.
7. • Which is not a part of the cell theory?
• What was Robert Hooke’s contribution to cells?
• What is a benefit of the cell theory?
• What does “cells come from other cells” mean?
8. • What impact has the cell theory had on the modern day world in
which we live?
9. Robert Hooke — named the cell base
observations on cork bark
Anton van Leeuwenhoek — improved the
microscope and observed bacteria and one-cell
animals
Mathias Schleiden — all plant tissue is made of
cells
Theodor Schwann — all animal tissue is made
of cells
10. Functions of Cells
• Metabolism- chemical reactions
inside the cell
• Response — perceiving and
responding to changes in the
environment
• Homeostasis keeping conditions
inside the organism within tolerable
limits (balanced)
14. Proprioception
is the body’s ability to sense its
location, movements, and
actions.
It’s the reason we’re able to
move freely without consciously
thinking about our environment.
15. Abnormal proprioception causes symptoms that
can interfere with even the simplest activities.
• balance issues, such as having trouble standing on one foot or
frequent falls while walking or sitting
• uncoordinated movement, such as not being able to walk in a straight
line
• clumsiness, such as dropping or bumping into things
• trouble recognizing your own strength, such as pressing on a pen too
hard when writing or not being able to gauge the force needed to pick
something up
• avoiding certain movements or activities, such as climbing stairs or
walking on uneven surfaces because of a fear of falling
