Developing the Cell Theory
What is a cell?
• The cell is a basic building block of living
things, both plant and animal.
All living things have cells.
• Plants
• Animals
Cell Theory
• All organisms are composed (made up of)
cells.
Tool used to view cells
Timeline - 1590
• Hans and Zacharias Janssen (1590),
Dutch glasses makers, father and son.
Produced first compound microscope (2
lenses).

Timeline- 1665
• Robert Hooke (1665), English Father of
Microscopy, looked at a thin slice of cork
through a compound microscope and
observed tiny, hollow room like structures.
He called them cells, but only saw the
outer cell walls because the cork cells
were not alive.

microscope and discovered that they are
made of cells.

Physician, stated that living cells come
only from other living cells.

CELL THEORY
• Based on the findings of Schleiden,
Schwann, and Virchow
• All life forms are made from one or more
cells
• Cells can only be made from other cells
• The cell is the smallest form of life
