According to scientists, Robert Hook is revered as the first scientist who discovered a dead cell of the bark of a cork oak tree in 1663
After observing a thin slice of cork, Robert Hooke reported to the world that life's smallest structural units were "little boxes". Hooke was able to see individual cells. NOW, Anton van Leeuwnhoek was probably the first actually to observe live microorganisms.
