Cell theory cartoon Collin Nyce

- Glad you asked it all started when Janssen invented the microscope. The tool being used for all the cellular discoveries. Come in let me explain.
- How did cell theory start?
- Using the microscope the scientist Robert Hooke was able to discover plant cells. That finding would later help cement our understanding of cells being what all organisms are composed off and, serving as a basic unit of structure and the function of organisms.
- Fascinating how something so small can mean so much.
- Another scientist Leeuwenhoek would study pond water under the microscope and, observed protist cells which he named animalcules. This name would later be changed by Robert Hooke he gave the name we have today the cell. ( This all occurred in the 16 hundreds)
- Wow! Crazy how discoveries were being made all the way back then.
- Then came the discoveries of the scientist Robert Brown. While studying the process of fertilization under the microscope he spot a opaque area in part of the cells. He would examine this area and right a detail description of this part which he called the nucleus.
- After the discoveries of R. Brown then came Schleiden. He would carefully observe plants and after sometime would conclude that all plant tissue is made of cells. Another scientist who goes by the name of Schwann would make the same discovery but in all animals.
- Wait if all animals are made of cells that means I am to. Huh, weird to think all humans are nothing more than a pile of cells.
- Finally came Virchow. He would also study cells like the rest of the scientist mentioned. At the end of his studies he publish a statement "Omnis cellula e cellula." This translates to all cells come from preexsisting cells. That statement would then later be the final part of cell theory.
- Thanks so much sir I didn't know something so small could be so important or interesting. Now I know how cell theory came to be and the parts of it.
