These cells are the basic unit of structure in all organisms and also the basic unit of reproduction. With continual improvements made to microscopes over time, magnification technology advanced enough to discover cells in the 17th century. This discovery is largely attributed to Robert Hooke, and began the scientific study of cells, also known as cell biology. Over a century later, many debates about cells began amongst scientists. Most of these debates involved the nature of cellular regeneration, and the idea of cells as a fundamental unit of life. Cell theory was eventually formulated in 1839. This is usually credited to Matthias Schleiden and Theodor Schwann. However, many other scientists like Rudolf Virchow contributed to the theory. Cell theory has become the foundation of biology and is the most widely accepted explanation of the function of cells. The three tenets to the cell theory are as described below: All living organisms are composed of one or more cells. (However, this is considered a controversy because non-cellular life such as viruses are disputed as a life form. See Non-cellular life.) The cell is the basic unit of structure and organization in organisms.

O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O +Wages and salaries came under pressure in July as a shorter average workweek and lower hourly earnings cut into paychecks .

O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O +Companies that can change their culture and view employees as business partners will do well , O'Neal said . O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O I-PER O O +For example , the survey rated some participants in the survey as " high-performing " companies , based on their return on equity above 16 percent .

I-LOC I-LOC O I-PER O O O I-PER O O +Donna Sells I-PER I-PER +NEW YORK I-LOC I-LOC +The outcome of the November elections emerged as a hot topic on Wall Street this week as financial pundits debated whether Robert Rubin might forgo a second term as Treasury secretary if President Clinton is re-elected . O O O O O O O O O O O O I-LOC I-LOC O O O O O O O I-PER I-PER O O O O O O I-ORG O O O I-PER O O O +Concern centred on the currency markets since Rubin 's tour de force has been his unflagging support of the dollar . O O O O O O O I-PER O O O O O O O O O O O O O +Speculation that Rubin might not stay in his post grew after he sidestepped questions about any future Cabinet post during television interviews at the Democratic convention in Chicago this week . O O I-PER O O O O O O O O O O O O O O I-ORG O O O O O O I-MISC O O I-LOC O O O +Should Rubin leave , Wall Street would worry that he might take his strong-dollar policy with him . O I-PER O O I-LOC I-LOC O O O O O O O O O O O O +Rubin 's predecessor at the Treasury , Lloyd Bentsen , was viewed with suspicion by some in the financial markets who thought he had tried to push down the dollar to gain an edge in trade negotiations with Japan . I-PER O O O O I-ORG O I-PER I-PER O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O I-LOC O +" Obviously , under the Clinton administration , we 've seen two distinctively different dollar policies , " said Chris Widness , an international economist at Chase Securities Inc. " Under Rubin , the U.S. has certainly looked for a strong dollar . " O O O O O I-PER O O O O O O O O O O O O O I-PER I-PER O O O O O I-ORG I-ORG I-ORG O O I-PER O O I-LOC O O O O O O O O O +That strategy , backed up by timely instances of joint central bank intervention , helped the dollar battle back from post-Second World War lows of 1.3438 German marks on March 8 , 1995 , and 79.75 Japanese yen on April 19 , 1995 .

O O O O O O O O I-LOC O O O O O O O O O O O O O +As for U.S. Treasury securities , Widness explained that Alan Greenspan 's reappointment as chairman of the Federal Reserve and the outlook for the federal budget were more important than whether Rubin continues at the Treasury . O O I-ORG I-ORG O O I-PER O O I-PER I-PER O O O O O O I-ORG I-ORG O O O O O O O O O O O O I-PER O O O I-ORG O +" Although , if we did get someone that was seen as looking for a dollar depreciation , it would probably hurt capital flows to the United States , " said Widness , adding that could hurt U.S. stocks and , to a lesser degree , bonds . O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O I-LOC I-LOC O O O I-PER O O O O O I-LOC O O O O O O O O O O +Still , markets may have little to fear from any Rubin successor because the firm dollar policy has yielded positive results . O O O O O O O O O O I-PER O O O O O O O O O O O +If that is true , then any new Treasury chief would need to be as effective as Rubin in convincing markets that the White House does indeed want a strong currency . O O O O O O O O I-ORG O O O O O O O O I-PER O O O O O I-LOC I-LOC O O O O O O O +" If he left , the first question people would ask the next guy is , ' What 's your view on the dollar ?

O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O +Companies that can change their culture and view employees as business partners will do well , O'Neal said . O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O S-PER O O +For example , the survey rated some participants in the survey as " high-performing " companies , based on their return on equity above 16 percent .

B-LOC E-LOC O S-PER O O O S-PER O O +Donna Sells B-PER E-PER +NEW YORK B-LOC E-LOC +The outcome of the November elections emerged as a hot topic on Wall Street this week as financial pundits debated whether Robert Rubin might forgo a second term as Treasury secretary if President Clinton is re-elected . O O O O O O O O O O O O B-LOC E-LOC O O O O O O O B-PER E-PER O O O O O O S-ORG O O O S-PER O O O +Concern centred on the currency markets since Rubin 's tour de force has been his unflagging support of the dollar . O O O O O O O S-PER O O O O O O O O O O O O O +Speculation that Rubin might not stay in his post grew after he sidestepped questions about any future Cabinet post during television interviews at the Democratic convention in Chicago this week .

O S-PER O O B-LOC E-LOC O O O O O O O O O O O O +Rubin 's predecessor at the Treasury , Lloyd Bentsen , was viewed with suspicion by some in the financial markets who thought he had tried to push down the dollar to gain an edge in trade negotiations with Japan .

" Under Rubin , the U.S. has certainly looked for a strong dollar .

O O O O O O O O S-LOC O O O O O O O O O O O O O +As for U.S. Treasury securities , Widness explained that Alan Greenspan 's reappointment as chairman of the Federal Reserve and the outlook for the federal budget were more important than whether Rubin continues at the Treasury .

O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O B-LOC E-LOC O O O S-PER O O O O O S-LOC O O O O O O O O O O +Still , markets may have little to fear from any Rubin successor because the firm dollar policy has yielded positive results . O O O O O O O O O O S-PER O O O O O O O O O O O +If that is true , then any new Treasury chief would need to be as effective as Rubin in convincing markets that the White House does indeed want a strong currency .

O O O O O O O O I-LOC O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O I-LOC O O O O O O O O O O O -Around 40,000 tonnes of the copper have already been moved to warehouses near the northern port of Yingkou , where some of the strategic stockpile was stored , they said . O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O I-LOC O O O O O O O O O O O O O -Just who owns the copper is a question that has kept traders and industry analysts guessing since the metal was channelled into Shanghai by the China National Nonferrous Metals Import and Export Corp ( CNIEC ) in June and July . O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O I-LOC O O I-ORG I-ORG I-ORG I-ORG I-ORG I-ORG I-ORG I-ORG O I-ORG O O O O O O -It was unclear whether or not the 40,000 tonnes had cleared customs -- which would provide some concrete indication that the strategic reserve , administered directly by the central government 's State Planning Commission , owned the copper . O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O I-ORG I-ORG I-ORG O O O O O -Traders have said the reserve could negotiate concessions on duties -- three percent import tax and 17 percent value-added tax -- that made the copper prohibitively expensive otherwise . O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O -But one source , the head of a Hong Kong trading house , said it made no difference if the copper was customs cleared or not . O O O O O O O O I-LOC I-LOC O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O -" If they spend all this money moving the copper to Yingkou , it will be sitting there for years , " he said .

O O O O O I-LOC O O O O O O O O I-ORG I-ORG I-ORG O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O -Mystery has surrounded the Shanghai stockpile in recent months , with traders unsure not only of who owns it , but of its exact size and what its owner planned to do with it . O O O O I-LOC O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O -Trading sources generally agreed it would be cost-effective to take the copper back into a depleted central reserve as it had already served its purpose in taking advantage of long-term backwardation on the London Metal Exchange ( LME ) . O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O I-ORG I-ORG I-ORG O I-ORG O O -A backwardation occurs when the spot price of a metal is higher than the forward price . O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O -CNIEC lent around 85,000 tonnes of copper onto the LME between April and June 1995 on behalf of the state reserve , running the state stockpile down to 115,000 tonnes from 200,000 tonnes previously . I-ORG O O O O O O O O I-ORG O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O -Traders in Asia said CNIEC could well have lent it to the market at around US$ 2,700 a tonne , and then paid somewhere between $ 2,200 and $ 2,400 a tonne when it started taking the metal back earlier this year . O O I-LOC O I-ORG O O O O O O O O O O I-MISC O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O -This would have cleared CNIEC a healthy profit , which could then have been used to finance storage and other costs . O O O O I-ORG O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O -Word that CNIEC had offered the copper to European trading houses in a series of secret meetings unnerved an already jittery market . O O I-ORG O O O O O I-MISC O O O O O O O O O O O O O O -Industry analysts Bloomsbury Minerals Economics ( BME ) said on Wednesday the motivation of the owners of the 85,000 tonnes , " whoever they are , is the most important short-term fundamental " in an already tight world market . O O I-ORG I-ORG I-ORG O I-ORG O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O -BME repeated in its latest review rumours of involvement by Sumitomo Corp , with CNIEC said to be helping the Japanese trader unload its copper positions after it revealed in June losses of $ 1.8 billion in a decade of unauthorised deals . I-ORG O O O O O O O O O I-ORG I-ORG O O I-ORG O O O O O I-MISC O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O -Sumitomo and CNIEC have made no comments on the talk and Chinese traders said they know nothing of such an arrangement .

O O O O O O O O I-LOC O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O I-LOC O O O O O O O O O O O -Around 40,000 tonnes of the copper have already been moved to warehouses near the northern port of Yingkou , where some of the strategic stockpile was stored , they said . O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O I-LOC O O O O O O O O O O O O O -Just who owns the copper is a question that has kept traders and industry analysts guessing since the metal was channelled into Shanghai by the China National Nonferrous Metals Import and Export Corp ( CNIEC ) in June and July . O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O I-LOC O O I-ORG I-ORG I-ORG I-ORG I-ORG I-ORG I-ORG I-ORG O I-ORG O O O O O O -It was unclear whether or not the 40,000 tonnes had cleared customs -- which would provide some concrete indication that the strategic reserve , administered directly by the central government 's State Planning Commission , owned the copper . O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O I-ORG I-ORG I-ORG O O O O O -Traders have said the reserve could negotiate concessions on duties -- three percent import tax and 17 percent value-added tax -- that made the copper prohibitively expensive otherwise . O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O -But one source , the head of a Hong Kong trading house , said it made no difference if the copper was customs cleared or not . O O O O O O O O I-LOC I-LOC O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O -" If they spend all this money moving the copper to Yingkou , it will be sitting there for years , " he said .

O O O O O I-LOC O O O O O O O O I-ORG I-ORG I-ORG O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O -Mystery has surrounded the Shanghai stockpile in recent months , with traders unsure not only of who owns it , but of its exact size and what its owner planned to do with it . O O O O I-LOC O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O -Trading sources generally agreed it would be cost-effective to take the copper back into a depleted central reserve as it had already served its purpose in taking advantage of long-term backwardation on the London Metal Exchange ( LME ) . O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O I-ORG I-ORG I-ORG O I-ORG O O -A backwardation occurs when the spot price of a metal is higher than the forward price . O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O -CNIEC lent around 85,000 tonnes of copper onto the LME between April and June 1995 on behalf of the state reserve , running the state stockpile down to 115,000 tonnes from 200,000 tonnes previously . I-ORG O O O O O O O O I-ORG O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O -Traders in Asia said CNIEC could well have lent it to the market at around US$ 2,700 a tonne , and then paid somewhere between $ 2,200 and $ 2,400 a tonne when it started taking the metal back earlier this year . O O I-LOC O I-ORG O O O O O O O O O O I-MISC O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O -This would have cleared CNIEC a healthy profit , which could then have been used to finance storage and other costs . O O O O I-ORG O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O -Word that CNIEC had offered the copper to European trading houses in a series of secret meetings unnerved an already jittery market . O O I-ORG O O O O O I-MISC O O O O O O O O O O O O O O -Industry analysts Bloomsbury Minerals Economics ( BME ) said on Wednesday the motivation of the owners of the 85,000 tonnes , " whoever they are , is the most important short-term fundamental " in an already tight world market . O O I-ORG I-ORG I-ORG O I-ORG O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O -BME repeated in its latest review rumours of involvement by Sumitomo Corp , with CNIEC said to be helping the Japanese trader unload its copper positions after it revealed in June losses of $ 1.8 billion in a decade of unauthorised deals . I-ORG O O O O O O O O O I-ORG I-ORG O O I-ORG O O O O O I-MISC O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O -Sumitomo and CNIEC have made no comments on the talk and Chinese traders said they know nothing of such an arrangement .

O O O O O S-MISC O O O O O -The day programme went smoothly although sixth-seeded former champion Agassi had to wriggle out of a dangerous 3-6 0-4 hole , winning 18 of the last 19 games against India 's Leander Paes .

" O O O O O O O O O O O S-PER O O -I think I played very well tonight , very focused .

O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O S-LOC O O O O O O O O O O O O O -Just who owns the copper is a question that has kept traders and industry analysts guessing since the metal was channelled into Shanghai by the China National Nonferrous Metals Import and Export Corp ( CNIEC ) in June and July .

O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O B-ORG I-ORG E-ORG O O O O O -Traders have said the reserve could negotiate concessions on duties -- three percent import tax and 17 percent value-added tax -- that made the copper prohibitively expensive otherwise . O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O -But one source , the head of a Hong Kong trading house , said it made no difference if the copper was customs cleared or not .

O O O O S-LOC O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O -Trading sources generally agreed it would be cost-effective to take the copper back into a depleted central reserve as it had already served its purpose in taking advantage of long-term backwardation on the London Metal Exchange ( LME ) .

O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O -CNIEC lent around 85,000 tonnes of copper onto the LME between April and June 1995 on behalf of the state reserve , running the state stockpile down to 115,000 tonnes from 200,000 tonnes previously . S-ORG O O O O O O O O S-ORG O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O -Traders in Asia said CNIEC could well have lent it to the market at around US$ 2,700 a tonne , and then paid somewhere between $ 2,200 and $ 2,400 a tonne when it started taking the metal back earlier this year . O O S-LOC O S-ORG O O O O O O O O O O S-MISC O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O -This would have cleared CNIEC a healthy profit , which could then have been used to finance storage and other costs . O O O O S-ORG O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O -Word that CNIEC had offered the copper to European trading houses in a series of secret meetings unnerved an already jittery market . O O S-ORG O O O O O S-MISC O O O O O O O O O O O O O O -Industry analysts Bloomsbury Minerals Economics ( BME ) said on Wednesday the motivation of the owners of the 85,000 tonnes , " whoever they are , is the most important short-term fundamental " in an already tight world market .
