Hey everyone,
I was reading a Biology text and it mentioned the Cell Theory, and at the same moment I thought of this question. Why do we still consider it a theory, if we have seen it occur many times by observing microscopes of differing abilities. Shouldn't we consider it a fact now that we have viewable proof? Or is Biology just different from some of the other sciences, or is there something I haven't been taught yet about this theory?
