Answer: D. All living cells come from other living cells.

Step-by-step explanation:

A is incorrect because organisms like bacteria and amoebas are unicellular, or have 1 cell.

B is incorrect because cells are specialized: nerve cells and muscle cells do not share the same function.

C is incorrect because inanimate objects are not alive and do not have cells.

D is correct because cells reproduce by mitosis, creating copies of themselves.
