Question

which statement about cells is incorrect? a all living things begin life as a single cell. b all living cells come from other living cells. c it takes many cells to make a living organism. d the cell is the basic unit of structure and function in life.

Explanation:

Single - celled organisms are living things and consist of just one cell, so the statement "It takes many cells to make a living organism" is incorrect. All living things begin as a single cell (from fertilization in multicellular organisms or as single - celled organisms themselves), all living cells come from pre - existing living cells (cell theory), and the cell is the basic unit of structure and function in life.

Answer:

c. It takes many cells to make a living organism
