Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Cells are considered the basic units of life in part because they come in discrete and easily recognizable packages. That’s because all cells are surrounded by a structure called the cell membrane-which, much like the walls of a house, serves as a clear boundary between the cell’s internal and external environments.

Detailed explanation-2: -The cell is the structural and functional unit of life, and all the organisms are made up of cells of different size, shape, number and structural organization. Cells are also known as ‘building blocks of life’. The study of cell is called ‘cell biology or cytology’.

Detailed explanation-3: -The classical cell theory was proposed by Theodor Schwann in 1839. There are three parts to this theory. The first part states that all organisms are made of cells. The second part states that cells are the basic units of life.
