Step 1: Understand that the classic cell theory consists of three fundamental principles that describe the nature and origin of cells in living organisms.
Step 2: Recall the first tenet: 'All living organisms are composed of one or more cells,' which establishes that cells are the basic building blocks of life.
Step 3: Recall the second tenet: 'The cell is the basic unit of structure and function in living things,' meaning that all biological functions occur within cells.
Step 4: Recall the third tenet: 'All cells arise from pre-existing cells,' which refutes the idea of spontaneous generation and emphasizes cell division as the source of new cells.
Step 5: Compare the given options to these three tenets and identify the set that exactly matches these principles without adding incorrect or unrelated statements.
