1.1 MULTIPLE CHOICE QUESTIONS
1) Robert Hooke Coined The Term Cell When Studying Thin Slices Of Cork. These
Were The First Cells Observed Because ____.
A) Dead Plant Cells; The Thick Cell Walls Did Not Require High Resolution Or
Magnification To View
B) Dead Animal Cells; They Were Immobile And Did Not Need To Be Fixed Before
Viewing
C) Compartments; They Were Actually The Result Of Multiple Cells That Had Merged
And Died To Form Large Compartments That Were Easy To View
D) Immune Cells; They Produce Antibodies That Embed In The Cell Membrane To
Make It Visible
E) “Little Rooms”; They Were 100 Nm In Diameter, Much Larger Than Most Plant Cells
ANS. A
Hooke Examined Cork, Which Is Composed Of Dead Plant Cells. Although The Living
Contents Of These Cells Were Gone, The Rigid Cell Walls Remained Intact. These Thick
Walls Were Relatively Large And Distinct, Making Them Visible With The Limited
Resolution Of Early Light Microscopes. Living Cells And Their Internal Structures
Would Have Been Much Harder To Observe With The Technology Available At The
Time.

V&C LO: VC-SF
, 2) The Latin Phrase Omnis Cellula E Cellula Refers To A Cellular Principle. Which Of
The Following Statements Is The Best Interpretation Of This Phrase?
A) Tissues Are Composed Of Similar Cells.
B) Cells Generally Are Found In Clusters.
C) All Cells Arise Only From Preexisting Cells.
D) Organs Are Composed Of Tissues And Cells.
E) The Cell Is The Basic Unit Of Structure.
ANS. C
Omnis Cellula E Cellula Translates To “Every Cell From A Cell.” This Principle,
Associated With Rudolf Virchow, States That New Cells Do Not Arise Spontaneously
But Instead Come From The Division Of Existing Cells. This Idea Was Central To The
Development Of Modern Cell Theory.

3) ____ Improved The Original Light Microscope In The Late 1600s, Allowing The
Visualization Of ____.
A) Theodor Schwann; The Internal Structures Of Cells, Such As Ribosomes, Nuclei, And
Golgi Bodies
B) Robert Hooke; Bacteria And Viruses
C) Antonie Van Leeuwenhoek; Sperm Cells, Bacteria, Algae, And Other Protists
D) Robert Brown; Cell Structures Using Fluorescent Antibodies
E) Rudolf Virchow; Collagen And Muscle Cells
