In the discussion of how new "discoveries in Biological Science" reveal a "continuity of the animal and vegetable series of organic forms" and thus blur the "sharp line of division between them" (138), Dallinger refers to the core findings of a branch of biology that just came up in the time Whitman wrote Leaves of Grass, then referred to as "
cell theory": "Schwann and Schleiden have shown that the fundamental basis of both animal and vegetable life is the same--a cell" (138).

[9] A few studies like Lax et al in 1994 [10] and Shiroko et al in 2000 [11] have reported that mixed MTC-PTC had arisen from a common stem cell, thus supporting the stem
cell theory.
The origin of placental teratoma is obscure but germ
cell theory is widely accepted2 According to this theory in the early stages of embryogenesis the primitive gut evaginates into the umbilical cord during which time primordial germ cells from the primitive gut migrate through the gut wall and are deposited in the connective tissue of the cord and eventually pass into connective tissue between amnion and fetal surface of
This reading offers new ways of approaching Lorca's artistic production by revealing the cross-pollination of scientific and artistic awareness in his work, especially in his treatment of the relations between the structures of religious life and
cell theory.
Today,
cell theory holds that all organisms are made of one or more cells, that the cell is the basic unit of life, and that all cells come from existing cells.
Some researchers advocate the cancer stem
cell theory, which puts forth the idea that cancer is caused by cancer stem cells that possess the same characteristics as stem cells.

CELL THEORY? (9780778771999), Adam McLean's WHAT IS ATOMIC THEORY?
Back in the late 70s, Prof Kirkwood proposed the disposable soma
cell theory. It assumes that the body only needs to make its cells as good as they have to be, in the same way that we tend to make tools or objects to last for DR SCOTT'S SURGERY with Dr Mike Scott The soma cells, which constitute nearly every cell in our bodies, are subject to this process, but germ cells, sperm and egg cells have their DNA maintained in good condition.
More than this--their scientific results have on the contrary arisen new metaphysical questions as it can be made clear in three historical stages of the evolution of the 19th century life sciences: the
cell theory, the materialism debate and the reception of Darwinism.
This has been attributed to the current methods of instruction and the lack of instructional resources amenable to the study and proper understanding of such complex areas as
cell theory. The study reported here assessed the effects of a computer-based instruction simulation (CBIS) program developed for the teaching of school biology, as part of a classroom innovation for science instruction to improve students' understanding and perception of
cell theory.
Specific topics include adult stem
cell theory of the multi-stage, multi-mechanism theory of carcinogenisis; schistosomiasis and neoplasia; co-opting macrophage traits in cancer progression; involvement of chemokine receptors in organ-specific metastasis; and options for visualizing metastatic disease in the living body.
