M1: Cell Theory Flashcards
First compound microscope was invented by ________ ________ (1595)
Zacharias Janssen
published Micrographia containing drawings of cork (1665)
Robert Hooke
observed organisms in drops of water through a simple microscope (1674)
Anton Van Leeuwenhoek
concluded that all plants are composed of cells (1838)
matthias schleiden
concluded that all animals are composed of cells (1839)
theoder schwann
proposed that cells came from another existing cells, completing the cell theory (1855)
rudolf virchow
was the first scientist to use the word “cells” in 1665. Hooke
used it to describe the small chambers within a cork that he observed under
a microscope. The microscope was of his own design.
Robert Hooke
Hooke observed that the thin sections of the cork resembled “_______-_____”
or small “Boxes or bladders of air”. He noted that each cell was distinct from
the others. At that time, he was not aware that the cork cells were just long
dead cells that lacked internal structures.
honey-comb
was a German botanist who made an extensive
microscopic observation of plants and described them as being composed of
the cells. He postulated or hypothesized that every living thing is made up of
cells or the product of the cells.
Matthias Schleiden
also believed that cells formed through crystallization, rather than
cell division.
Matthias Schleiden
was a German physiologist who made microscopic
observations of animal tissue.
Theodor Schwann
_________ (study of cells)
cytology
In 1839, after a conversation between Schleiden and Schwann, _________
realized that there are similarities existed between their observations of
plant and animal tissues. This led to the concept that cells are essential
components of plants and animals.
schwann
was a pathologist who published an editorial essay entitled
“Cellular Pathology”, which popularized the concept of the Cell Theory.
Rudolph Virchow
The
essay used the Latin phrase omnis cellula a cellula, which means _____________________.
all cells arise from cells
was also known as the Father of Pathology.
Rudolph Virchow
He was the first to
determine the causes of various diseases by examining their effects to
tissues and organs.
Rudolph Virchow

There are also living organisms that are made
