  2. Cell theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_theory

    From these conclusions about plants and animals, two of the three tenets of cell theory were postulated. 1. All living organisms are composed of one or more cells 2. The cell is the most basic unit of life. Schleiden's theory of free cell formation through crystallization was refuted in the 1850s by Robert Remak, Rudolf Virchow, and Albert ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cellularization

    According to Otto Kandler's pre-cell theory, [1] [2] [3] early evolution of life and primordial metabolism (see Iron-Sulfur world hypothesis - metabolism first scenario, according to Wächtershäuser [5] [6]) led to the early diversification of life through the evolution of a multiphenotypical population of pre-cells, [1] [2] [3] from which the three founder groups A, B, C and then, from them ...

    The commonly accepted theory for the evolution of plant morphology is the antithetic theory. The antithetic theory states that the multiple mitotic divisions that take place before meiosis, cause the development of the sporophyte. Then the sporophyte will development as an independent organism. [43]

    English: Kandler's pre-cell theory (Kandler 1998, Figure 2.3, p.22) - Scheme of cellularisation (modified after Kandler 1994, p.155)ː Scenario of the early evolution and diversification of life through the development of a multiphenotypical population of pre-cells from which the founder groups (A, B, C) and then, from them, the precursor cells (proto-cells) of the three domains of life (Woese ...

  6. Bioecological model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bioecological_model

    In comparison to the original theory, bioecological systems theory adds more emphasis to the person in the context of development. Additionally, Bronfenbrenner chose to leave out key features of the ecological systems theory (e.g., ecological validity and ecological experiments) during his development of bioecological systems theory. As a whole ...

  7. Morphogenesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Morphogenesis

    During embryonic development, cells are restricted to different layers due to differential affinities. One of the ways this can occur is when cells share the same cell-to-cell adhesion molecules. For instance, homotypic cell adhesion can maintain boundaries between groups of cells that have different adhesion molecules.

  8. Weismann barrier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weismann_barrier

    The Weismann barrier, proposed by August Weismann, is the strict distinction between the "immortal" germ cell lineages producing gametes and "disposable" somatic cells in animals (but not plants), in contrast to Charles Darwin's proposed pangenesis mechanism for inheritance.

  9. Development theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Development_theory

    Human development theory is a theory which uses ideas from different origins, such as ecology, sustainable development, feminism and welfare economics. It wants to avoid normative politics and is focused on how social capital and instructional capital can be deployed to optimize the overall value of human capital in an economy.
