    S3 Oxibillo, Gabriel Dominic C.
    The document discusses the history and development of cell theory. It describes key discoveries and scientists that contributed to cell theory, including: (1) Van Leeuwenhoek who discovered bacteria and cells under a microscope; (2) Robert Hooke who first used the term "cell" to describe the structures he saw in cork; (3) Matthias Schleiden and Theodor Schwann who concluded that all plants and animals, respectively, are made up of cells. Cell theory states that all organisms are made of cells, cells are the basic unit of structure and organization of organisms, and all cells come from preexisting cells.

    CELL

    THEORY
    CELL
    THEORY
    All organisms (living things) are made up of one or
    more cells.

    The cell is the basic unit of structure and organization


    in organisms.

    All cells come from preexisting cells.


    THE MICROSCOPE

    • ZACHARIAS JANSSEN

    • COMPOUND MICROSCOPE
    Did you know?

    Many people believe Zacharias Janssen


    invented the first microscope and
    telescope. But this has never really
    been proven. There were many other
    scientists working on similar
    inventions at the time.
    THE DISCOVERY OF BACTERIA

    • ANTOINE VAN LEEUWENHOEK


    THE DISCOVERY OF CELLS
    • Van Leeuwenhoek wrote letters to a scientist
    friend in England named Robert Hooke. Hooke
    also studied objects with a microscope.

    • He studied a piece of cork and noticed it was


    divided up into little chambers. These reminded
    him of monastery cells. So, he named his
    discovery cells.
    ROBERT HOOKE
    1635-1703

    This painting of Robert


    Hook was painted based
    on his friend's
    descriptions of him as
    there are no known
    contemporary works of
    this influential scientist.

    DISCOVERIES
    ABOUT CELLS
    • Next came the work of two German scientists. Matthias
    Schleidan was a botanist. He used microscopes to study
    plants. Eventually, he realized that all the plants he
    looked at were made of cells.

    • Meanwhile, Theodor Schwann studied slides of animal


    cells. He concluded that all animals were also made of
    cells!
    MATTHIAS JACOB SCHLEIDEN
    1804-1881
    THEODOR SCHWANN
    18010-1882
    All organisms (living
    things) are made up of
    one or more cells.

    The cell is the basic unit of


    structure and
    organization in organisms.
    RUDOLF VIRCHOW
    1821-1902

    All cells come from


    preexisting cells.
    What can we
    learn from the
    history of cell
    theory?
