CELLS

Question 1

In 1665, this English scientist discovered cells while looking at a thin slice of cork. He described cells as tiny boxes or a honeycomb. He thought that cells only existed in plants and fungi

Answer 1

ROBERT HOOKE

Question 2

In 1673, he used a handmade microscope to observe Pon scum & discovered single-celled organisms and he called them “animalcules”

Answer 2

ANTON VAN LEEUWENHOEK

Question 3

He also observed blood cells from fish, frogs, birds, dogs and humans. Therefore, it was known that cells are found in animals as well as plants

Answer 3

Question 5

In 1839, he stated that all animal tissues are composed of cells

Answer 5

THEODOR SCHWANN

Question 6

In 1858, after extensive study of cellular pathology, he concluded that cells must arise from pre-existing cells.
