    All living things are composed of cells, which are the basic structural and functional units of life. Cells vary in size, shape, and structure depending on their specialized functions. The cell theory states that cells are the fundamental unit of life, cells arise only from pre-existing cells, and cells differ in form and function. Key contributors to the development of the cell theory include van Leeuwenhoek who first observed cells under a microscope, Hooke who coined the term "cell", Brown who discovered the nucleus, and Schleiden and Schwann who formulated the modern cell theory.

    Cell Structure

    and Function

    JHUN DARVEN M. AGBAY


    INTRODUCTION
    All organisms are Cells vary in size and
    composed of structural structure as they are
    and functional units of
    life called specialized to perform
    “cells” different functions.
    The Cell theory
    Antonie van
    leeuwenhoek

    -Invented the
    microscope.
    Robert hooke
    First used the word “cell”
    in the 1665.
    By looking at a cork with a
    simple microscope he
    found what appeared to
    be blocks of building
    material and small
    compartments making up
    the cork.
    Antonie van
    leeuwenhoek
    -1672, He observed
    bacteria, sperm cells,
    and red blood
    corpuscle, all of
    which were cells.
    Robert hooke
    The term today
    describes a microscopic
    unit of life that
    separates itself from its
    surroundings by a thin
    partition, the cell
    membrane.
    Robert brown
    1831, an Englishman
    observed that all cells
    had a centrally
    positioned body which
    he termed the nucleus
    Rudolf virchow
    (1821-1902) A German
    Pathologist, famously
    wrote
    “omnis cellula e cellula”
    “all cells come from
    other cells”
    The cell theory
    In 1838 M.J. Schleiden
    & Theodore Schwan
    Formulated the cell
    theory
    The cell theory
    Maintains that all
    organisms are
    composed of cells, it is
    the structural and
    functional unit of life,
    and cells arise from pre-
    existing cells.
    The cell theory

    Also states that cells


    vary considerably, in
    shape and size.
    The cell theory
    -Nerve cells of
    animals have long
    extensions.
    -Muscle cells are
    elongated in shape.
    The cell theory
    -Egg of an ostrich is
    the largest cell
    (75 mm)
    - Some plant cells
    have thick cell walls.
