Multiple Choice Questions

1) Robert Hooke coined the term cell when studying thin slices of cork. These were the first cells observed
because

B) dead animal cells; they were immobile and did not need to be fixed before viewing

C) compartments; they were actually the result of multiple cells that had merged and died to form large
compartments that were easy to view

D) immune cells; they produce antibodies that embed in the cell membrane to make it visible

E) "little rooms"; they were 100 nm in diameter, much larger than most plant cells
