Question

five statements are given that describe cells. which statement could best be used to justify the claim that studying cell biology can be considered the same as studying life?
all cells share certain fundamental structures that carry out similar functions.
all cells are enclosed by a membrane that separates the interior of the cell from the surrounding environment.
cells use dna to store all of the biological information necessary to construct themselves.
cells are dynamic because they constantly undergo chemical change.
cells function according to the same principles that govern the function of all living things.

Explanation:

The claim that studying cell biology is like studying life is best supported by the idea that cells function according to the same principles as all living things. This implies that the fundamental biological processes and laws applicable to life in general can be studied at the cellular level. The other statements focus more on cell - specific characteristics rather than the over - arching connection to life as a whole.

Answer:

Cells function according to the same principles that govern the function of all living things.
