which of the following is not one of the classical cell theory statements?
new cells are produced from existing cells
all living things are made of cells
viruses are cells
cells are the simplest living structures
The classical cell theory has three core tenets: all living things are composed of cells, cells are the basic/simplest living structural and functional units, and new cells arise from pre-existing cells. Viruses are acellular (not made of cells) and do not fit within classical cell theory, so this statement is not part of it.
