The correct response is **D: 3 only**.
Cell theory includes the idea that the basic unit of life is a cell (statement 3). However, statement 1 (not all living cells have a cell wall, as animal cells do not) and statement 2 (not all living cells require oxygen; for example, anaerobic bacteria do not) are not part of cell theory.
