The main points of the cell theory include:

A. Cells are the basic units of structure and function in living things. B. New cells are produced from existing cells. D. All living things are made up of cells.

Option C ("All cells enclose their DNA within a nucleus") is not a part of the cell theory, as it is only true for eukaryotic cells; prokaryotic cells do not have a nucleus.
