Cell contains hereditary information that is passed from cell to cell during cell division.

Living cells can be created from dead cells.

All cells perform similar metabolic activities.

The statements 'the cell contains hereditary information that is passed during cell division' and 'all cells perform similar metabolic activities' were NOT in the original cell theory.

The cell is the basic structural and functional unit of all organisms.

All life forms are composed of cells.

All cells derive from preexisting cells, which means that the origin of all organisms can be traced to a primitive ancestral cell.
