A scientific theory is supported by more data than a scientific law.

scientists do not communicate with each other and often make mistakes
hypotheses seldom change even when new discoveries are made
scientists often ignore evidence that does not help prove their theory

Improvements in technology are closely related to changes in the cell theory
Scientists needed to focus less on cells and more on microscope development

Which characteristics do single-celled organisms and multicellular organisms have in common?
Both have a way to get rid of waste materials by using cell organelles.
Both have cells with specialized functions for each life process.
Both are able to make food from sunlight.

rough ER → transport vesicle → Golgi → transport vesicle → lysosome → plasma membrane
plasma membrane → transport vesicle → Golgi → transport vesicle → rough ER
Which of the following is the difference between single-celled and multi-celled organisms?
Single-celled organisms need food to survive, but multi-celled organisms do not
Multi-celled organisms are more complex than single-celled organisms.
Single-celled organisms are more complex than multi-celled organisms.
Multi-celled organisms need food to survive, but single-celled organisms do not.
