II. LEARN
Cells are the basic building blocks of all living things. The human body is
composed of trillions of cells. They provide structure for the body, take in
nutrients from food, convert those nutrients into energy, and carry out
specialized functions. Cells also contain the body’s hereditary material and can
make copies of themselves.
Cells have many parts, each with a different function. Some of these parts,
called organelles, are specialized structures that perform certain tasks within
the cell.
In this lesson, you are to explain the postulates of the cell theory. The three
postulates of the cell theory offer the basis on how an organism is considered as
a living thing.
Prior to the invention of the very first microscope, everything that could
not be seen by the naked eye was unexplainable. In 1665, English physicist
Robert Hooke used of the first light microscopes to look at thin slices of plant
tissues. One of these, a slice of cork, especially caught his eye. Under the
microscope, cork seemed to be made of thousands of tiny chambers. Hooke
called this chamber ―cells because they reminded him of a monastery ‘s tiny
rooms, which were also known as cells. Until 1676, Anton van Leeuwenhoek
published his observations on tiny living organisms which he named
animalcules. It was believed that Leeuwenhoek was the first to observe under
his microscope the structure of a red blood cell of different animals as well as a
sperm cell.
One of the leading botanists in his time, Robert Brown in 1831 was able
to compare diverse kinds of plant specimens under the microscope. He markedly
indicated that there is a common thing about them-they are all composed of
cells, and inside the cell is a dark dense spot which he termed as the nucleus. A
few years later, German botanist Matthias Schleiden (1838) concluded that all
plant parts are made of cells. Theodor Schwann (1839), also a botanist and a
close friend of Schleiden stated that all animal tissues are composed of cells, too.
In 1858, Rudolf Virchow concluded that all cells come from pre-existing cells.

Figure 1.1. Structure of cork using a microscope as seen by Robert Hooke (1665)
The discoveries made by Hooke, Leeuwenhoek, Schleiden, Schwann,
Virchow, and others led to the formulation of the cell theory. The cell theory
describes the properties of all cells. This theory can be summed up into three
basics components: (1) all living things are composed of one or more cells; (2) the
cell is the basic unit of life; and (3) all cells arise from pre-existing cells.

B. Review

The cell is the basic unit of life. Our body is made up of millions
and billions of them. A cell is like a tiny system. Inside the cell are
organelles with different functions. Among these organelles are; nucleus,
mitochondria, Golgi bodies, cell membrane and cell wall.

C. Motivation

• Imagine our establishments, houses and schools are permeable to


anyone, what do you think will happen to our everyday life?

• Do you think cells also needs guards or barriers to protect what’s


inside them?
