Question

question 4 4 pts when scientists set out to test a hypothesis, it is often most practical to try to prove the hypothesis false rather than to prove it is true in all cases. scientists place great confidence in cell theory, yet it has not been tested in every living thing on the plant. what piece of evidence would cause scientists to decide that cell theory would need to be revised? an organism was found with tissues made of something other than cells a cell was found that could continue to divide and reproduce indefinitely an animal cell was found that could harness solar energy as plant cells do cells were found that used something other than dna as hereditary material

Explanation:

Cell theory states that all living organisms are made up of cells. If an organism was found with tissues made of something other than cells, it would directly contradict this fundamental tenet of cell theory, necessitating a revision. A cell that divides indefinitely is related to concepts of cancer - like cells and does not challenge the basic idea of cell theory. An animal cell harnessing solar energy is an unusual - but not theory - shattering - discovery. Cells using a non - DNA hereditary material would be a discovery in genetics but not a direct challenge to cell theory.

Answer:

An organism was found with tissues made of something other than cells
