Cell is the fundamental structural and functional unit of all living organisms because:
| 1. | Anything less than a complete structure of a cell does not ensure independent living. |
| 2. | The metabolic reactions can only occur inside a living cell. |
| 3. | Nucleic acids present in the cells ensure living state. |
| 4. | The membrane bound organelles cause differentiation for proper functioning. |
The phrase 'Omnis cellula-e-cellula' was given by:
1. Virchow
2. Pasteur
3. Schleiden
4. Brown
Dutrochet has given the concept about the cell in:
1. 1834
2. 1814
3. 1822
4. 1824

| Assertion (A): | Cell is the fundamental structural and functional unit of all living organisms. |
| Reason (R): | Anything less than a complete structure of a cell does not ensure independent living. |
| 1. | Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) is the correct explanation of (A). |
| 2. | Both (A) and (R) are True, but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A). |
| 3. | (A) is True, but (R) is False. |
| 4. | Both (A) and (R) are False. |
| Assertion (A): | Cells vary in their shape, size and functions based on the presence or absence of a membrane bound nucleus and other organelles. |
| Reason (R): | A typical eukaryotic cell consists of a cell membrane, nucleus and cytoplasm. |
| 1. | Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A). |
| 2. | Both (A) and (R) are true, but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A). |
| 3. | (A) is true, but (R) is false. |
| 4. | (A) is false but (R) is true. |
| Assertion (A): | Cell is the fundamental structural and functional unit of all living organisms. |
| Reason (R): | Because unicellular organisms can show independent existence and perform all metabolic activities. |
| 1. | Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A). |
| 2. | Both (A) and (R) are true, but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A). |
| 3. | (A) is true, but (R) is false. |
| 4. | Both (A) and (R) are false. |
