THEATOMISTS • Democritus (460 - 370 B.C.) • He followed Anaximander's view of evolution • Credited as being the father of atomic theory which connects directly to biology. http://www.mlahanas.de/Greeks/images/Democritus1.jpg

Cells • Basic Units of life • Building blocks of all organisms • Units of life
The Cell Theory 1. All living things are composed of one or more cells.2. Cells are organisms' basic units of structure and function.3. Cells come only from existing cells.
