The cell


Today, I wanna share about cell in history and definition.

In 1685, Robert Hooke from England did a research for slice of cork was underneath the microscope. He found a hollow that called cell or cellule.

Robert brown (Scotland, 1831) found a smallest thing flew in protoplasm, it called nuclei.

Mathias Schleiden (botany) and Theodore Schwann (zoologies), in 1838 found the similarity in plant tissue and animal tissue. They submitted that the living things consisted of cell and cell was a structural unit of living things.

Anton Van Leeuwenhoek was the first men who observed and described a single-celled organisms.
