Chapter 1 A Preview of Cell Biology
1.1Multiple Choice Questions
1) Robert Hooke coined the term cell when studying thin slices of cork. These were the first cells
observed because .
A) dead plant cells; the thick cells walls did not require high resolution or magnification to view 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 Accurate Answer: A Chapter
