All living things are made of ____
A
atoms
B
cells
C
bacteria
D
plants
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -A cell is the smallest unit that is typically considered alive and is a fundamental unit of life. All living organisms are composed of cells, from just one (unicellular) to many trillions (multicellular). Cell biology is the study of cells, their physiology, structure, and life cycle.

Detailed explanation-2: -Cells provide structure and function for all living things, from microorganisms to humans. Scientists consider them the smallest form of life. Cells house the biological machinery that makes the proteins, chemicals, and signals responsible for everything that happens inside our bodies.

Detailed explanation-3: -In 1838, German scientist Matthias Schleiden concluded that all plants are made of cells. The next year Theodor Schwann, another German, concluded that all animals were also made of cells.

Detailed explanation-4: -Yes, all living things are made up of cells. In 1665, Robert Hooke discovered the existence of cells using a microscope, which further paved the way for the discovery of various other microscopic organisms. Some organisms consist of a single cell, for example, the amoeba.

Detailed explanation-5: -All living things, or organisms, are made up of at least one cell. Some organisms, such as amoebas, are made up of only one cell and are therefore called unicellular organisms. On the other hand, multicellular organisms, such as humans, are composed of more than one cell.
