I think that Anton Van Leeuwenhoek was around the same time of Robert Hooke, but I am not sure.
Robert Hooke
robert hooke discovered cells the reason why he call it "cell" is because when he saw it, it is like a cell where you can find prisoners or in other words, it's like a prison... ---it's according to my biology teacher.
Robert Hook discovered cells by looking through a microscope at a thin piece of cork. He was able to observe the cork cells, which looked like little individual chambers, so he called them cells, and the name has stuck ever since.
Matthias Jakob Schleiden (April 5, 1804 - June 23, 1881) was a German botanist and co-founder of the cell theory, along with Theodor Schwann and Rudolf Virchow.
Robert Hooke invented a watch escapement and realized it could be used in a clock accurate enough to be used to determine longitude.He invented a machine for cutting gears much finer than could be made by hand.He invented a tool for measuring the power of gunpowder, and a tool for measuring fine increments of angles, down to the second of angle, for astronomical objects.He invented the sash window.He invented a number of other things, some of which were also invented by other people, such as the universal joint.He did not invent the microscope, which was invented several decades before Hooke was born.He invented the microscope in the year 1681.Cell
Robert Hooke had told other scientists about his discovery by publishing a book about cell theory. Cheers :)
Because he had an argument with him and many other scientists too. :D

Robert Hooke
Robert Hooke was discovering very great things at time and people were noticing that. He also worked with a lot of other scientists that contributed to the "Cell Theory". Robert Hooke's contribution to science was fundamental because his discoveries led to us knowing what a cell is and what it looks like. Also, his contribution was fundamental because humans are made up of cells, and he was the first to figure that out. This was considered a great discovery.

Robert Hooke looked at cork with a microscope. He noticed little boxes that he called "rooms" or "cells". Monks and other religious people lived in small cells or rooms.
Yes and No. Robert Hooke did not invent anything other than the Gregorian refracting telescope. But he discovered 'cell' in 1665 that is the smallest structural and functional unit of an organism
Robert Hooke was one of the inventors of the microscope. He was a brilliant scientist and studied cork cells, noticed they were empty and rectangular like the cells of monks and thus, named them cells.There was a English inventor named Robert Hooke. He was born at Freshwater, Isle of Wight, son of John Hooke, memeber of 'All Saints Church'. Robert Hooke was one of the most brilliant and versatile of seventeen-century English scientsist, but he is also not well-known; his persona and his contributions are far outweighted in public perception by those of Newton and of Wren. No likeness exicts of Robert Hooke. Hooke was originally buried THERE, but his bones were moved to 'somewhere in North London' in the 19th century, so his final burial place is unknown.Well, that's all i know that is about Robert Hooke 7 i felt that i had a better answere than that other people's answers.P.S. Thanks. Good-Bye!!!!!also he found out about microscopes and baisically discovered cells so yeh but i dony no much so what the heck. xxx thanx xxx
when he made his book with the drawing in of the cork cells and other things
