    The cell theory has been proven to be true. The cell theory states that:

    1. All living things are made up of one or more cells.

    2. All living cells come from pre-existing cells, by division.

    3. The cell is the fundamental, structural unit of all living organism.

    The organismal theory on the other hand argues that during plant growth/evolution, the original cell expanded into the whole organism. This opposes the 2nd tenet of the cell theory that all living cells come from pre-existing cells by division.
