Question

the process of science is iterative. ideas are built upon, tested, refuted, and used to learn even more about the natural world. relate the history of cell theory to the process of science. select all the examples that show how the development and application of cell theory was an iterative process. schleidens research on plant cells inspired schwann to conduct similar research on animal tissues. leeuwenhoek made great strides in improving the microscope but was notoriously secretive. he never divulged his methods for making lenses. virchow applied the tenets of cell theory to pathology, the study of disease, and showed that diseases involve malfunction in normal cells. hooke and leeuwenhoek often tried to replicate each others scientific observations. this lent their microscopic observations credibility in the scientific community.

Explanation:

• Schleiden's work inspiring Schwann shows building - on of ideas.
• Virchow applying cell theory to pathology is an example of further development and application.
• Hooke and Leeuwenhoek replicating each other's observations is part of the iterative process of testing and validating ideas. Leeuwenhoek's secrecy is not related to the iterative process of cell - theory development.

Answer:

• Schleiden's research on plant cells inspired Schwann to conduct similar research on animal tissues.
• Virchow applied the tenets of cell theory to pathology, the study of disease, and showed that diseases involve malfunction in normal cells.
• Hooke and Leeuwenhoek often tried to replicate each other's scientific observations. This lent their microscopic observations credibility in the scientific community.
