    Study Notes

    Cell Discovery and Theory

    • Robert Hooke is credited with the discovery of the cell in 1665.
    • Hooke observed cork under his microscope and saw tiny pockets or compartments, which he called "cells."
    • Lorenz Oken believed that all living beings originate from or consist of vesicles or cells.
    • Jean-Baptist de-Lamarck expressed the idea that no body can have life if its constituent parts are not cellular tissue or are not formed by cellular tissue.
    • Matthias Jakob Schleiden, a German botanist, and Theodor Schwann proposed the Cell Theory.
    • Robert Brown reported the presence of a nucleus in the cell in 1831, which changed the understanding of cells.

    Cell Theory Components

    • The three basic parts of the cell according to the Cell Theory are:
      • Cellular tissue
      • Vesicles
      • Cells
