The cell theory has not been proven wrong; instead, it has been refined and expanded upon over time as new discoveries are made in the field of Biology. The core principles of the cell theory, such as the idea that all living organisms are composed of cells, remain fundamental to our understanding of life.
The cell theory is accepted today because it has been supported by numerous observations and experiments. It provides a framework for understanding the basic unit of life and how organisms are structured and function. Additionally, advancements in technology have allowed scientists to further investigate and confirm the principles of the cell theory.
The cell theory is considered a theory because it has been extensively tested and validated through numerous scientific experiments and observations. It provides a comprehensive framework that explains the fundamental properties and workings of cells, forming a solid foundation in biology. In contrast, a hypothesis is a proposed explanation for a phenomenon that has yet to be rigorously tested and confirmed.
Viruses are not considered part of the cell theory because they are acellular entities that require a host cell to replicate.
The structural unit of the cell theory is the cell. The cell is the basic structural and functional unit of all living organisms.
Janet Plowe did not develop the cell theory. The cell theory was formulated by Matthias Schleiden, Theodor Schwann, and Rudolf Virchow in the 19th century.
It can change if it is proven wrong, or if a new theory is proven more likely to be true.
Evolution, Atomic Theory
a law is something that is true and a theory is an opinion or thought that can be proven wrong.
Nope, educated assumptions are more of a theoretical answer to a question, since theory cannot be proven wrong given the conditions put forth before the theory is stated, same with the educated assumption, what can be proven wrong is the conditions given prior to the assumption
theory
Louis Pasteur
If you mean cells that make up living beings, then yes and it's not a theory because it's been proven
Scientific theorums are normally discarded after they have been proven to be wrong after a series of testing to verify if the theory was correct or not. Scientific theorums can take years, sometimes decades to be proven to be correct or incorrect.
No it would be a theorem if it was proven.
No, they can be proven wrong. For instance, one theory long ago stated that the Earth was the center of the Solar System, and the Sun and Planets went around us. This theory was proven wrong by Copernicus. Until the 20th Century, it was 'Theorized' that the Universe was in a "Static" condition. Then it was proven that it was expanding (Edwin Hubbel gets that credit). So nothing is forever, perhaps even the Universe?
Exactly the same, there was no big bang!! That theory has been proven wrong.
Many ancient civilizations believed so. Today, that theory has been proven wrong.
