4. Stable internal conditionsExample: maintaining fluid pressure in the cell

homeostasis - Maintain stable internal conditions – even when outside conditions - Maintain stable internal conditions – even when outside conditions change.change. Example: body temperature

cell theory - Explains the relationship between cells and living things – no - Explains the relationship between cells and living things – no matter how big or how smallmatter how big or how small

3 parts of cell theory

1. All living things are made of cells.2. Cells are the basic unit of structure & function in living organisms.

3. All cells are produced from other cells.
