Since the initial acceptance of cell theory, recent advances in biotechnology have provided scientists with far more information about the structure and function of cells. How has the discovery of DNA and our current understanding of the cell cycle affected cell theory? A. Cell theory was rejected after new evidence showed that DNA contains hereditary information.
B. Cell theory was elevated to a scientific law.
C. Cell theory was expanded to include new components.
D. Cell theory was replaced by a new theory that includes viruses as basic units of life.

c

Explanation:

can't be a because

the cell theory is still around it was not rejected nor can it be b because Cell theory is a theory, not a law because the cell theory does not have enough support to become a law. nor can it be d bc its still around it was not replaced. c makes the most sense bc The expanded version of the cell theory can also include: Cells carry genetic material passed to daughter cells during cellular division. All cells are essentially the same in chemical composition. Energy flow (metabolism and biochemistry) occurs within cells. hope i helped

unicellular organisms, like bacteria, are able to perform all life functions within one single cell. multicellular organisms need many different types of cells to carry out the same life processes. each of these special types of cells has a different structure that it perform a specific function.
